[Xen-users] Xen startup

[William D Turner <bturner01@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All - judging from the general tone of posts to this list, members
are probably going to think I'm nuts but here goes anyway.
Just trying out Xen for the simple pleasure of experimentation but am
not getting very far. This is on an AMD Duron box, 256Mb ram 128 Gb
disk, Gentoo 2005.0, Xen 2.0.5.
Following the docs to install from source did the following :-
cd /xen-2.0/linux-2.6.10-xen0
cp /usr/src/linux/.config .
make ARCH=xen oldconfig
cd ..
make
make install

Grub.conf has the following :-
# For booting XEN
title XenLinux-2.6.10 Xen-2.0
root (hd0,6)
kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=65536
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-xen0 root=/dev/hda7 \
ro hdc=ide-cd hdd=ide-cd vga=extended console=tty0

On boot of XenLinux, I get a string of messages then
Scrubbing Dom0 Ram..Done
Scrubbing Free Ram......Done

Then the box freezes solid. There are no logs that I can find which might give 
a clue.
Google hasn't come up with anything and I don't know how to proceed from here. 
Would someone be kind enough to point me in an appropriate direction.
Apologies if this seems terribly newbie.
Many thanks
Bill
