Rough steps:
Get the right settings in .config (SCSI adapters, and particularly the Adaptec 
one you've got) in your "<xenroot>/linux-2.6.16.13-xen" - using "make 
menuconfig" is one way to achieve this. 

Go to the <xenroot> and do "make dist". 

If you're using the same machine to develop and run Xen, do "make install", 
otherwise copy the contents of the "<xenroot>/dist" directory to the target 
machine and run "install.sh" from this directory. 

Once you have installed Xen and xenified linux kernel, do "depmod 
2.6.16.13-xen" and "mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.16.13-xen 2.6.16.13-xen"

And of course make sure you have the initrd as a module in your 
grub.conf/menu.lst file.

That should do it - if not, please let me know what step you get which error 
message...
