The debs, and > source archives, are both there. Are there any plans for Xen kernel debs? That's where I was having the problems-- the packages installed fine but the kernel still didn't work as expected. Mark Williamson and I have been writing back and forth for about a week trying to figure out WHY it's not working, so if you have any insight you might be able to provide, I can send you the thread or start cc'ing you if you want. Mark mentioned the possibility of getting a Debian guru in on the conversation. Or if there are any specific Debian instructions for compiling the xen0 kernel that you could provide, that might help a lot! The BASIC problems were that I couldn't get a fat partition on hdb to mount, and alsa wouldn't work. But it goes a bit deeper than that, and I'll explain more if you decide you have any time and would like to help. Thanks a million!
