However I think this is due to the debian linux dom0 having broken sata code for the controller in use. dom0's dmesg is filled with debug statements from sata related places in the kernel that should never be printed. We're in a messy de-centralized linux development world trying to get a stable dom0 patched together. It sucks. The paravirtualization port appears dead to me. I've tried to keep up on it, but the guy's blog no longer mentions it, his repository is often down, and when it is up the commits do not appear to be very frequent. Also his blog hasn't mentioned it in a year or more. http://hg.recoil.org/openbsd-xen-sys.hg http://anil.recoil.org/blog/
