Yes, acpi=off seems to have decided my problem of instability. Soon, then I
will be returning the HD in the machine in production and I dispatched by
post the result.

The troubles went away when adding kernel options "noapic
acpi=off" to
the modules grub line.
Both noapic and acpi=off make big difference to the machine
setup - it would probably be a good idea to figure out which
one makes the difference. If it's acpi=off, a new BIOS that
has more suitable things in the ACPI tables is probably the solution.
If it's the noapic that actually solves the problem, then
that would be useful to know (but I'm not sure what the fix
is, aside from the fact that it may actually be the PCI
enumeration that goes wrong in the system - lspci -vvv may
give some info.
Yep, there's been a couple of people recently saying that problems have
been fixed with acpi=off and noapic, and this really rather concerns me.
I'd be very interested to see a diff of the output a native boot vs a
failing xen xen one.
We need to get this fixed as I certainly wouldn't want to run a system
with 'noapic'. The legacy pic support in xen is really only in their so
that people can run on emulators like vmware or qemu.
