   Right, XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST is always on right now because there's no
prompt to change it.  To fix that, do this:

--- a/linux-2.6-xen-sparse/arch/ia64/Kconfig    Thu Nov 10 21:24:29 2005
+++ b/linux-2.6-xen-sparse/arch/ia64/Kconfig    Tue Nov 15 13:25:13 2005

          TEMP ONLY. Needs to be on for drivers/xen to build.
 
 config XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST
-       bool
+       bool "Privileged Guest"
        default y
        help
          Used in drivers/xen/privcmd.c.  Should go away?

Then you can make some decisions based on it like the previous chunk
showed.  I would assume you'd then make is set in the defconfig for
dom0, but not in domU.  Hope that helps,

        Alex
