Thanks for the pointer. This looks a bit more like it, although I
didn't really get any further: the kernel seems to crash as soon as
Xen loads it, without any kind of output.

Is the Fedora 8 Xen kernel incompatible (perhaps too new?) with the
stock Debian Etch dom0 kernel and/or hypervisor?

What method are you using to boot? pygrub or with kernel and ramdisk?

if pygrub than typically the main compatibility point is PAE vs. non PAE.

If kernel then you shouldn't have a compatibility issue as you should just use the dom0 kernel.

Cheers,
Andy
