I've managed to get 8 CentOS4.3 domU's running under Debian Sarge.
dunno if any of this helps:-

#/boot/grub/menu.lst
title             Xen 3.0 / XenLinux 2.6
kernel            /xen-3.0.gz console=vga dom0_mem=524288
module            /vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=/dev/hda3 ro console=tty0
savedefault
boot

#grep ^[a-z] /etc/xen/centos0

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen"
builder='linux'
memory = 32
name = "centos0"
cpus = ""         # leave to Xen to pick
vcpus = 1
vif = [ '' ]
disk = [ 'file:/xen/images/centos0.img,hda1,w',
'file:/xen/images/centos0-swap.img,hda2,w']
dhcp="dhcp"
root = "/dev/hda1 ro"
extra = "4"

I start them all off with
xm create centos[0-8]
or if I want to log into the domU
xm create centos[0-8] -c /etc/xen/centos[0-8]

Where [0-8] is a single digit of the domU that I want to fire up.

I tried to specify different partitions with no success (yeah, it was a
typo made by me in the config)

always the same error, also by strace(ing) the 'xm' executable I see
before this error a signal* (.py,.so,etc) missing. dunno if it's
related...

thanks

ciao,
Marco
