OK. Well, it is apparently some sort of memory error. I was able to get things "working" by swapping the position of the RAM modules in slots 1 and 2 (they are numbered 1-4).

However, I am still having problems. Starting Xen guest domains results in them hanging the whole machine. I have enabled debug-level logging, but it is not showing anything useful. Just the domain starting, then something like "unpausing domain" or "domain unpaused" (I am not in front of the logs at the moment) and then the machine is hung. I reboot and chekk all the dom0's logs and there is nothing to indicate a problem.

Any ideas?
