 Indeed, if netbsd is launched as a Xen HVM DomU using more than one 
 processor, everything is ok, but dmesg would output this:
 
 [...]
 fdc0 at isa0 port 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2
 timecounter: Timecounter "clockinterrupt" frequency 100 Hz quality 0
 ERROR: 269 cycle TSC drift observed
 [...]
 
 Outside Xen, it looks like only 1 processor can be initialized (c.f. 
 http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-amd64/2009/02/05/msg000730.html ), it 
 may explain the problem. I'll try to boot a 5.0_RC2 kernel outside Xen 
 as soon as possible.
 
 Best regards.
