Adam Heath was working on the official Debian Xen 2.0 packages, so if they're 
not in testing / unstable, they will be at some point.

Try the following in the xen repository:
cp /your/old/config/file dist/install/boot/config-xxx-xen0
make dist

The above should work.  You mentioned in an earlier post that you'd done a 
make xconfig in the Linux directory - if you do that, you'll need to copy out 
the .config file to the path I mentioned above.  Otherwise it'll get 
overwritten (by the file that happens to be at that path) when you make 
dist / world.

HTH,
Mark
