Thanks.  It may be related to a driver problem that we saw sporadically
before and have also been unable to reproduce in 1.2032 --- it's
possible that this was related to one of the other fixes that went into
the underlying kernel when we moved from git8 to git9.

What's the problem?  I'd rather fix it than disable debug, and we're
really close to the scheduled FC5 release date now so I don't want to be
making significant changes at this point.

No -- it always works for me.  But I did notice something from the
bugzilla that might be important, and I just added:
        
                kernel /boot/xen.gz-2.6.15-1.29_FC5 com1=115200,8n1
                module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-1.29_FC5hypervisor ro root=/dev/sda1 
        console=tty0 console=ttyS0 sync_console
        
        This is wrong, the "sync_console" needs to be on the "kernel" hypervisor option
        list, not the xen0 "module" list.  Can you reproduce with that change? 

Cheers,
 Stephen
