I can't seem to get it right.
I'm trying to get a Xen server working via http://www.howtoforge.com/debian_sarge_xen_3.0.3.
Everything is going great until the: mkinitrd.yaird -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16.29-xen 2.6.16.29-xen
Here I get a: yaird error: can't open /proc/bus/input/devices (fatal)
Me, myself and I can't find the helping search keywords to fix it.
Someone else maby? Thanks in advance...

Do you use Debian Sarge? Do you use it on a dedicated system (i.e., not virtual server)?

Yes, I used the first two pages of the Perfect Sarge Net install on a dedicated box.

Did you partition the hard drive exactly as described in the Xen tutorial?

A solution might be to create the ramdisk using a live-CD such as Knoppix: http://www.mail-archive.com/yoper-dev@lists.yoper.com/msg00456.html
