It works for me, both 32 and 64 bit versions. But I only use one vcpu
per domain (dom0 too), and additionally pin dom0 vcpu to cpu0. Maximum
memory in domU -- 2GB, only PV domU. Maybe this settings somehow
improve stability of 2.6.26 kernels.

Details:

dom0 kernels:
linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-amd64  2.6.26-15lenny2
linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-686    2.6.26-15lenny2

domU kernels:
linux-image-2.6.26-2-686-bigmem 2.6.26-15lenny2
linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-686    2.6.26-15lenny2

Regards,
Kupson
