New to Xen and having problems getting started.

* 2 x 3.60 GHz/800 MHz (1MB L2)
* 4 GB RAM

Installation protocol:
Fresh debian sarge webserver install
apt-get emacs install hotplug twisted bridge-utils iproute iproute-
dev bridge-utils libcurl3 libcurl3-dev bzip2 ncurses-dev python
python2.3-dev latex
cd /usr/src
wget http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/downloads/
xen-2.0.7-src.tgz
tar xzvf xen-2.0.7-src.tgz
cd xen-2.0/
make world
make install
No problems so far.
added this first portion to /boot/grub/menu.lst

reboot...
everything looking good, but then the following happens during boot:
Root-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up.
VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floopy.
VFS: Insert root floopy and press ENTER
I press Enter and !!!!CRASH!!!!
Reboot
Looks like I am not alone:

I then tried adding an initrd
############
title Xen 2.0 / XenLinux 2.6
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/xen-2.0.gz dom0_mem=131072
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen0 root=/dev/sda4 ro console=tty0
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-2-386
savedefault
boot
############
but that results in an error 19 (it complains about the initrd being
loaded before the kernel which from the order in the grub file you
see above does not make sense to me).
Not sure what to try next... any tips?
