* Builds and boots without problems on SLES9 SP2
* Able to build functional DomUs, networking and all
* Running LTP runalltests.sh on both dom0 and domU
* ISSUE(S):


2) x86_32p (PAE)

-- SLES 9 SP2 and RHEL 4 on IBM xSeries 305s (512M RAM) and 235 (1G RAM)
* The SLES 9 SP2 boxes FAILED TO BOOT Dom0 when built with PAE
        * Two (2) machines exhibiting this problem
        * Last message on console is the 'xen memory scrubbing' line
* The RHEL 4 box builds and boots without problems with PAE 
        * Able to build functional DomUs, networking and all
        * Running LTP runalltests.sh on both dom0 and domU

* ISSUE(S): 

* Bugzilla #62 - Losing network when starting xend.
  * Still experiencing this problem on the SLES9 SP2 x86-64 boxes. 
  * Both SLES 9 SP2 boxes lose networking when 'xend start' is entered.
  * Problem appears worse now. The network-bridge script has been
changed recently.

  * New issue
  * We have previously built and booted Dom0 (and DomUs) on this box
