I just realised my layout for xen was pretty sane. I was
thinking of
my domus ... which I tend to be pretty lax with.

I'm guessing the main issue is that I'm trying to boot from
the usr mount.

That might sound strange but it used to do it ... and still
does it, just
with an decompressed kernel.

I'm happy ... it's a scripted routine that causes me no
grief. Interesting
though that grub had no problem once.
