Thanks all for your support. In the end it was just too much to try and
get the custom kernel with Compaq Array cciss support built. I
downloaded and installed Fedora Core 5 test2 and and getting a Xen 3
dom0 up and running on it has been as easy as "yum install
kernel-xen-hypervisor.i686 xen" Even if I had eventually managed to get
a compile to successfully complete (which I doubt) the fact that it was
so incredibly brittle meant I wouldn't have really wanted to rely on it.
Hopefully someone will try to create a Debian Xen kernel with the
philosophy that as much hardware as possible should be supported -
including the full range of ATA, SATA, and SCSI controllers that may
serve as boot and root devices.
