Yoshi,

>From Xen-ia64-unstable.hg, I have tried Rev#7926 with default
configuration, and it worked for Tiger4.

However, I had tried Rev#8188 and 794x version, which all failed for
Tiger4 with the exact SCSI failure as you saw on Cset 8234.

I have just tried Cset#8241 from
http://tx.downloads.xensource.com/xen-3.0-testing.hg and it has just
booted Dom0 to "init 3" on RHEL4U2 system disk.  But you need to use
attached xen_tiger_defconfig as build configuration.   

Please replace
~/linux-2.6-xen-sparse/arch/xen/configs/xen0_defconfig_ia64 with
attached config file.  And please answer "y" for 2 question prompted
during build.
