Hi, I am quite new to Xen, so before I go ahead and file bugs I want to make sure that I am not doing something stupid. Are the xen images supposed to bootable? There is no postinst in the images and so initrd doesn't get created. When I tried manually running update-grub and booting, grub refuses to boot the image. The image I am trying is linux-image-xen-amd64-k8_2.6.16-12_amd64.deb. Sure enough when I run file
