If the kernel boots far enough to get a login prompt then run "depmod
-a".

You say "booting up the base hardware", which sounds like you are trying
to boot domain 0 rather than a guest domain. If that's the case then you
want to be using 2.6.10-xen0 rather than 2.6.10-xenU.

As John pointed out, these symlink to the build tree. As you have
installed the binary distribution, you won't have this. These symlinks
can be ignored (they actually point to the local path on the machine in
Cambridge that the build was performed on - this is not a problem in
most cases but has been/will be fixed now-ish).
