I cannot how embarrassed I am by this.
watching evtchn's fly everywhere seen the wrong one get delivered and the right one go no where and the whole time I was swapping the 2 channels.

anyway, using the two files from:
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-ppc-devel/2006-08/ msg00006.html

Using the command:
  $ xm create -c dom1
you should be able to boot a DomU and see its output, all the way until it says it cannot find its rootfs.

Here is some output

NET: Registered protocol family 1
NET: Registered protocol family 17
Bridge firewalling registered
Ebtables v2.0 registered
ebt_ulog: not logging via ulog since somebody else already registered for PF_BRIDGE
802.1Q VLAN Support v1.8 Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
All bugs added by David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxx>
Root-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up.
VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy.
VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block(2,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option

and then you should panic. :)

I have a call to BUG() in my kernel so I can make sure I can interract with xmon, and I can :)
