I resolved the dmesg problem, it seems..

Looking my dmesg I (maybe) found the problem.. Following lines are about my 
standard mandrake kernel boot:

When I boot the Xen kernel, it seems it doesn't detect my UDMA controller, 
Because I can't se those lines:

PDC20265: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:11.0
PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 0000:00:11.0
PDC20265: chipset revision 2

hde: Maxtor 6Y080L0, ATA DISK drive
ide2 at 0x9400-0x9407,0x9002 on irq 10

It's a known problem? There's a patch somewhere?

Thank you.
