Konrad;

new flaw.

On adjusting as you suggested, I get a completely different oddity.  Never mind
about vif for the moment.
topic is memory management.

gentoo64 bin # /etc/init.d/xencommons  start
Starting xenstored...
Setting domain 0 name...
Starting xenconsoled...
gentoo64 bin # /etc/init.d/xend  start
gentoo64 bin # xm list
Name                                        ID   Mem VCPUs      State   Time(s)
Domain-0                                     0  7473     4     r-----     78.9
fed12                                            612     2                 0.0
fedora9                                          450     2                 0.0
squeeze                                          400     2               157.8

I have removed half of them already.  Something in xen is killing the system.

My total ram is 8 gig.  xen has allocated 7473 to dom0.  However the other
dormant vms overstep that significantly.  I mem-set dom0 to a few selected
sensible settings, and xen kills the system;  cpu usage goes to 100%, some
runaway processes take over, no control in a console, unusable. 
No choice but to hard reset the computer.

Now;

gentoo64 bin # xm create -c Lenny.com.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/Lenny.com.cfg".
Started domain lenny.com (id=1)
xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory
gentoo64 bin # xm list
Name                                        ID   Mem VCPUs      State   Time(s)
Domain-0                                     0  7473     4     r-----    129.7
fed12                                            612     2                 0.0
fedora9                                          450     2                 0.0
lenny.com                                    1   128     1     r-----      9.0
squeeze                                          400     2               157.8

Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory is a frustrating error
I encountered back in debian lenny kernel 2.6.26.

Why is the console not working??  
idella@gentoo64 ~/bin $ ls /dev/pts/
