It's not quite clear how to go about this so hopefully whoever maintains the FAQ is on this list.

As part of closing bug #156, it would be nice to add a sentence on item 4.8 (The initrd that came with my distro does not...) to include the following sentences:

"Some distros (notably SLES9) have a mkinitrd that adds garbage to the end of the initrd. These initrds will not work with Xen. To correct this problem, you should gunzip the initrd, and then gzip it again."

Thanks,

Anthony Liguori
