Are you trying to put your root directory (/) onto software raid?  If 
so, that, not your distribution, may be the problem -- as far as LILO is 
concerned.  Also, note that your root device should be running ext2 or 
ext3 if you want the path of least resistance with the linux kernel 
binaries shipped by Xensource.
I'm running Xen on Debian and Ubuntu as hosts...
