I'm not sure if this belongs here, but someone in the ##xen channel in irc.freenode.net told me to message this list and let people know about and/or inquire as to why the blktap (or better yet blktap2) driver is not included in M A Young's aforementioned kernels, blkbackend is there but it does not allow for tap:aio disks in the domU's.

Thanks,
David
