This is useful information, thanks. Please could we have a ''roll
call''
of the motherboard chipsets of anyone that''s seeing this problem. Do

have any usb devices plugged in to the machine? Also, what''s the usb

Is there any differece in the boot messages between xen-unstable and a
similarly configured native linux kernel booting on these systems?
Thanks,
Ian
