sounds like that 'make ARCH=xen ....' don't let setup the drivers.

If I copy my personal .config to linux-2.6.11-xen0 directory and execute a "make ARCH=xen oldconfig"
this option "ARCH=xen" modified my configuration to a new one without drivers for my hardware.
What could be wrong?

Abraços,

Marlon

For two weeks I am trying to instal xen 2.0.6 on my 
machine(see below details for my hardware), but I can't boot 
xen: follow the error:

RAMDISK: ext2 filesystem found at block 0
RAMDISK: image too big! (8000Kib/4096 Kib)
ROOT-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up
    

Sounds like you need to tweak:

 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=8192
