(this example is Debian etch > DomU under FC6 Dom0.) No :( Because the dom0 didnt need the drivers, they're not put in the initrd for the dom0, but it doesn't calculate in the fact we want to use the same initrd for the guests. I'm probably sounding like a broken record asking for these drivers in the default initrd for the xen kernel (which is used for both dom0 and guests).
