Glad to hear it!

The RAID6 driver tries to directly use some privileged instructions that a 2.0 
guest is not allowed to execute - that's why you're getting a General 
Protection fault.

This was discussed before - there's some suggestions in this mail from Keir:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2005-05/msg00154.html

Summary: should work in -unstable already, will work in 3.0, could be fixed 
for 2.0 if someone is willing to cook up a patch.

Cheers,
Mark
