Yeah.  Last line of my config is:

extra="earlyprintk=xen iommu=soft console=hvc0"

No login for me.  Just one of those days, I guess.

A also can't seem to pass devices through (unless I'm doing it wrong). 
When trying to pass my soundcard do the domU, it appears to be 
appropriately hidden from dom0 via xen-pciback.hide kernel param 
(/var/log/messages says 'pciback 0000:00:1b.0: seizing device') but when I 
try to start my domU with iommu=soft and pci=["00:1b.0"] I get a dozen or 
so "BUG: scheduling while atomic" messages w/ call traces.  My domU 
eventually starts up ok, but lspci returns with no output.

I've attached /var/log/messages from my dom0 after attempting to create my 
domU.
