Trying to install xen for the first time, can't get it to load

Celeron D processor

xen version 3.0.2-2
- downloaded binary version
- installed under a Debian Sarge environment

/ is on /dev/hda1, formatted as a ReiserFS

This is most likely the cause of your trouble.  I'm not sure about the
binary kernel, but the default config when building the xen kernel
from source only includes ReiserFS as a module; this means that the
kernel can't boot from a reiser root partition.  My suggestion is to
build the kernel from source, adding support for reiserfs.
