I removed the acpi=off option but it did not change anything.
I had to add it before becouse Xen did not want to start without it.
I don't quite remember what exact version of Xen 3 required that  
option to be defined.

The USB drives did not get powered up when I also removed the noapic  
option
and the nosmp option did not seem to have any effect.

Do you suggest me to recompile kernel with ACPI enabled ?

Btw, XEN starts with some kind of ASCI logo now and it totally
messes up my console. Can it be switched off?
The console is useless now.
