########################################################################
title   NetBSD/xen (serial)
        root (hd0,0,a)
        kernel (hd0,0,a)/usr/pkg/xen3-kernel/xen.gz dom0_mem=196608 
com1=9600,8n1
        module (hd0,0,a)/netbsd-xen0 root=wd0 ro console=ttyS0
#        module (hd0,0,a)/netbsd-xen0 root=/dev/hda1 ro console=ttyS0
