I know everyone always ignores me whenever I say this, but users really
should be using the -xen kernel rather than -xen0/U. The latter two are
just to make build times quicker for developers. The -xen kernel has way
more drivers, though built as modules, so you'll need to make an initrd.

unless I'm missing something, the official docs say nothing about a -xen kernel (and modules). what are more appropriate instructions for building?
