[kernel-xen] Issue Booting DomU's from certain hardware.

[Joe Fialkowski]

Steven,  

I loaded up the older version of Xen RPM's that I had a backup of. Seems its all OK with 4.1.3. 4.2 seems to have issues with Ubuntu and Fedora images using pygrub. Not sure why. But I hope this helps you narrow it down.
