Hi,

I'm glad there is work in progress to integrate xen in the Debian kernels. 
However, the current -xen kernels are mostly unusable :
    - no System.map
    - no config.<version> (that means no initrd)
    - no (post|pre)(inst|rm) (this is not a real problem, at least, an informative message
    should warn the user about the lack of boot loader / initramfs automatic configuration, and point him
    to some doc)
    - no doc (the doc should give a clue on how to configure grub, that is, load the hypervisor as a 
    kernel and then kernel and initrd as "modules", or at least a link to xen-source.com)
    
I understand this is WIP, but at least System.map and config.<version> should be provided to 
make this usable to someone who knows how xen work.

Thanks,
