I've continued searching, and I've found this post on the xen-users list reporting a similar problem : http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-11/msg00480.html As Xen gains popularity, I guess we'll be more and more facing this issue. I'll continue digging to try and find a solution.
