Sorry for bad advice, Vang.

Thanks for setting me correct there.  But now I'm really puzzled.

Apparently xen is being rolled into the kernel at some point in the 
future.  Does that mean that those future kernels will actually be 
hypervised?  Will the grub stanzas still require a "kernel xen" line 
with "module linux", or the more familiar "kernel linux".

Any insight appreciated.
