Didn't see anything from tcpdump.

I was indeed using 169.254.1.0/1, and moving to your suggested subnet
fixed the networking so DOM1 boots fine off an NFS root.

Unfortunately that root had a broken distribution, so I've repartitioned
after all to add a clean installation to a new partition, and perhaps
I'll try the VBD/VD stuff for better performance too.

Thanks,

Sean.
