Hello.

Most probably 2.6.18 is too old to have that pata_serverworks driver/module.

Try using RHEL5/CentOS5 2.6.18 kernel with all the latest drivers
backported, or then get Linux 2.6.30 and Xen dom0 patches for it.

(See the archives of this list, I sent a link to the Xen dom0 patches for
2.6.30 a couple of days ago).
