Hum, sorry, I do not have logs for compiling Xen 2.

I am using kernel 2.6.12 and xen 3.0.1-0tha5 on Debian. For what it's
worth in Your situation, the logfile from my last sucessfull build of a
custom kernel shows that I did use

~   make-kpkg --append_to_version .6-xen-pdvibm14-dom0 --arch xen
- --initrd --config oldconfig configure
~   make-kpkg --append_to_version .6-xen-pdvibm14-dom0 --arch xen
- --initrd --config oldconfig kernel_image

after having unpacked the kernel source from kernel.org and applied the
xen patch to the kernel source.

This results in a
~   /usr/bin/make  EXTRAVERSION=.6-xen-pdvibm14-dom0  ARCH=xen vmlinuz

In this process I do see SCSI and low level drivers (using menuconfig).

I do btw. use
~   CONFIG_MEGARAID_NEWGEN=y
~   CONFIG_MEGARAID_MM=y
~   CONFIG_MEGARAID_MAILBOX=y
in my kernel.

On Dell 2850, stabillity is significantly improved by booting the kernel
using "noirqbalance nousb".
