This same machine works exactly as expected with the non-Xen kernel.
With the Xen kernel, I get the following possibly interesting messages
on boot:

Repeatedly hitting return on what should be the serial console gives me
the following on the management console interface:
[iSP0m:WARN.2073] partition 1 :Discarded data from a terminal because
CNX serial is not ready. (RBINT=negated)
[iSP0m:WARN.2073] partition 1 :Discarded data from a terminal because
CNX serial is not ready. (RBINT=negated)
What can I do to fix this?
Thanks.

Hmmm... No, that does not appear to work either.
I am just not getting any output on the console from xen or dom0 on the
one machine.
What could be causing this?
I'm going to carefully re-examine the boot messages and the linux build
(.config) file...
Anyone have any ideas?

I still get xen & dom0 console output on all my systems with
xen-unstable.hg cset 16707. Can you copy the xen and vmlinuz binaries
from one to the other and see if they still work/fail the same way?
