Continuing problems with Dell PE 1550.

[Lars-Johan Liman <liman%autonomica.se@localhost>]

I mentioned on i386-users (or was it current-users?) that I had
problem booting my old Dell PowerEdge 1550 with modern code. I believe
I've found the problem behind that (and I see no reson to dwell
further on that subject ... ;-), but now I want to install XEN0.

The first problem was to install GRUB, but I think I overcame that too
(thanks to Chris Brookes and
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-xen/2005/11/06/0001.html).

The XEN kernel seems to boot fine. AFAICT it manages to find, load,
and start the correct NetBSD XEN0 kernel.

My problem now, is that when I try to boot the XEN0 kernel, from
NetBSD-daily/i386/20060410, it doesn't enable the AMR RAID controller
from which it want's mount its root file system, hence no root disk,
hence game over.  It _IS_ found by the GENERIC kernel.

This is a snippet that I managed to collect during boot. Why doesn't
it probe properly? It's _FOUND_ all right ...
