Now I've compiled loop support statically into the kernel -> no change,
doesn't work.

Well, I don't think these two should make any difference, as the kernel
doesn't even start to boot. But to make sure I've tried with and without
initrd (last tests without) and with modules in
/lib/modules/2.6.11-xen-universal in the domU filesystem.

Yes, as I said, it boots with the original XEN domU kernel and it boots
with a kernel built from 'config-ok'. But when using 'config-fail' WITH
THE SAME kernel source I'm unable get a working kernel image.

I think so, as I just switch the kernel=... option between the working
version and the version I can't get to work.

Greetings,
Markus
