The 2.6.39+ kernel from that git branch/repository gets past the "xen/balloon: Initialising balloon driver" part, but freezes at "Trying to unpack root image as initramfs...". If I boot this kernel without Xen, it boots fine. Since it's not printing a crash/oops message for this failure, I don't know if that's a different problem or it is somehow related, but either way, the outcome is still a machine that doesn't boot into a current Linux kernel while Xen is under the hood. -- Scott Garron
