Something strange here

This is not a Debian-Kernel!

Again - this is not a Debian-Kernel!

Let me guess that the problem is solved through:

- rebuilding initrd of dom0

or 

- installing the debian-Kernel in _domU_ and altering domu.cfg in
_dom0_ 

 or

- installing the debian-Kernel in _domU_ and make usage of pvgrub/pygrub
in dom0

hth,

Thomas
