I took the iso file below and installed, csupped RELENG_8_2 to /usr/src and 
after successful buildworld and buildkernel I've installed the world and kernel 
to a new disk. Of course in PV mode the Xen tried loading the kernel. Tomorrow, 
if needed, I can try to boot the very same instance on Intel HW also.

I got the following (of course there is no 120 domains on the host :) ):
