Looks good.

Also looks good, although I doubt the FC4 kernel includes support for ReiserFS
- you might need to build a new one.

I don't think this is a filesystem support problem - it looks like it's not
getting that far. However, SuSE 9.2 uses udev, so it seems likely you'll
need to boot the SuSE domain with an initrd. The stock one in your
SuSE /boot may do the trick (If that doesn't work, I think there's also a
Xen-specific one in the SuSE Xen rpms).
Does anyone know whether FC4 is currently on the -stable, -testing or
-unstable version of Xen? If it's -stable or -testing, you could use the
standard SuSE Xen kernel, otherwise you'll have to build your own with
ReiserFS support.
Cheers,
