No problem. I also think it can easily happen when I am trying to get
the one or the other thing done and am completely desperate and it's
late, I write postings that sound a bit offensive, or stupid (don't
know which is worse :) ).

One starts to yell at the people representing the piece of code that
is misbehaving for you. As alsready pointed out, the problem is here
we are a community of people doing it for free - with commercial
software it's people paid for it. They usually can't help you any
better when you find a deep or hard problem, but they just listen you
yelling and cash their support checks :) whereas the community is not
happy to hear offenses and stuff...

As you are running Xen for a long while, you must have quite some
experience in getting less well documented systems to work at shell
level with kernel tinkering included. So you seem to have really come
into a strange problem and maybe are desperate, which is
understandable.

As I said, maybe try another distribution as base, or start completely
from scratch with a fresh centOS 4.4 install, following excatly some
howto available outside.

Then see what's going wrong again. And try a new thread describing
exactly what you tried and what the effects are.

That often helps (but maybe you already tried that).
