I gave that a shot, but it remains unstable.

What do you get if you boot with HT/SMP enabled, but then do
"xm vcpus-set 0 1" in domain 0 (or edit your xend-config.sxp such that
dom0-num-cpus = 1. Is it stable? Most people generally run with 1 cpu in
dom0 as it generally leads to better performance.

Thanks,
