[xen-tools] Re: CentOS 4 domUs - what kernel?

Turns out the problem I was having was not necessarily due to CentOS
or xen-tools specifically - the udev daemon was dying and this was
causing Xen to not boot any new VMs of any flavor.

Wasn't able to figure out why it died, but it's died twice now and
both times it was directly after using xen-tools to make a CentOS vm
(this second time I used rinse, which worked fine aside from taking an
unusually long time to run). I'm still investigating the matter.

The CentOS domU does boot now, however, once I restart udevd, and it
uses the Ubuntu kernels without any obvious problems.
