Did you run a memtest on the problematic machine? I''ve noticed Xen
finds
issues that a typical kernel won''t (and dies over them).
This could be a piece of lint or fuzz shorting pins or a poorly seated
chip. I don''t have much info about your machine, but I just had a
similar issue on an ubuntu/xen install and after a few hours of hair
pulling I wished I checked the memory chips first :)
