Debian Packages of Xen?

Yes

It runs up my first DomU beautifully but when I start my second DomU it
crashes the PC and reboots.

Anything in the logs?

Mmmm, not that I understand :-)
Last message on the screen is:
kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interrupt

If I comment out the line in /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp

(network-script network-bridge)

It will run 2 DomUs

But you have no nice network connection then :)

No :-(

Only 2 but also 3 and more than? This sounds strange.

I'd try to see what the Xen demo cd does, to see if it's your
hardware, or your configuration, or the version,  and if another
version of Xen does better (if you have the debian packages, try
xensource binary or sozurce packages, or vice versa).

Xen CD won't boot - some problem with SATA and the CD ROM not being recognised

If it's only in the debian packages, a bug report would be a good idea.

Given my lack of knowledge it is far more likely to be me than Debian!
I was kinda hoping you were all going to say - "yeah, we hear this all the time" but perhaps not.

I will go and learn more about interrupts...
