Konrad,
To try eliminate the remaining differences here, could you post your
dom0/domU config files?
I'd like to build the same kernels to get an apples->apples comparison.

Also, could you include your grub info and domU cfg file?

These may eliminate some of the remaining diffs in the configs and
show why your's works while mine does not.

Thanks

-Bruce
