meanwhile i installed a xen several times, as well i reinstalled the domU's, i used 3 different HP servers (one brandnew), so it must be a problem with hardy.

obviously the xen-kernel shipped with hardy is totally unusable for production.

i have plenty other XEN Systems running - reliable - but not with hardy.
