 <snipped>

Try the following instead:

1. mkdir xen-new ; cd xen-new

2. bk clone bk://xen.bkbits/net/xeno-1.1.bk

3. ./xeno-1.1.bk/tools/misc/xen-clone bk://xen.bkbits/net/xeno-1.1.bk

This should work better --- without explicitly telling the clone
script which repository to use it defaults to xeno-1.0.bk. You may
have found it therefore went and downloaded xeno-1.0.bk and built
that! 

This might also explain any boot problems you've had with Xenolinux
--- the clone script may have built a 1.0 Xenolinux rather than a 1.1
Xenolinux!
