Forgot to mention one thing:  you'll have to pad the NetBSD/Xen kernel
image such that its size is a multiple of 4 (doing ``echo -n a >netbsd''
until it is works...).  There's a bug in Xen which causes it to fail
because Xen copies the image 4 bytes at a time and will stop short if the
size is not a multiple of 4 (and it's fatal because it copies from the
end to the beginning...).
