Spoke too soon :(

It *was* working, then I upgraded the memory in the server. After a 
morning spent trying various permutations*, I've determined that my 
setup works with 1G or 4G RAM, but not with 5G or 8G.
Any suggestions what I'm missing ? IS there something I need to 
change with >4G RAM ?
To recap, I'm trying to run MythTV in a PV guest with one HVR-1200 
DVB Tuner made available via pciback.hide.
Xen, Dom0, DomU all from Debian stable (Squeeze) - Xen 4.0.1, kernel 
2.6.32-xen.
AND64 - HP Proliant Microserver
