Thanks a lot Henning.
I've already generated my initrd with --with=xennet and --preload=xenblk
flags and I always get the same result.
Anyway, I completely agree with you about fedora-xen integration. XenSource
packages are always working fine while Fedora packaged versions are always
giving problems or presenting differences.

Remember, with XenSource kernels you have no support for the kernels
and no security updates for them, as Xensource concentrates on the
development of Xen, not the porting of the Xen Linux patches to the
newest Kernels).

Hint: Debian Etch plays nicely (say: nicest of all distributions I
tried) with all other distributions, and they use simple, functioning,
not overloaded tools :)
On Debian, with the Debian kernels, for which you also get security
updates, you can install suse and fedora simply with yum, and it just
runs.

Henning
