Current source tarballs by default build only one kernel anyway, giving you
all drivers anywhere.

Thats not entirely correct. The tarballs will make a single kernel
yes, but most drivers are still compiled as modules. So you need to
make sure that the appropriate /lib/modules/2.6.xx-xen directory is
available in the VM file system as well, otherwise drivers compiled as
modules won't be found.
