Did you compiled just xen sources or the whole kernel? Which kernel
version? Did you compiled debian way or just downloaded from
xensources and make install? There is not updated documentation about
compiling xen on debian and I have not experience on compiling
packages;
The kernel package from xen-linux-system-amd64 (2.6.26-1) have bugs
and I can't start x-window using xen kernel.
