Fedora xen - Sep 2006 - PAE confusion using FC5 kernel-xen - is it PAE or not?

Hi,

I''ve been playing around with FC5 and Xen, using kernel-xen0 and 
kernel-xenU for dom0 and domU''s respectively..

Unfortunately I hit a snag in that I can''t get pci pass-through for 
ethernet cards to a xenU kernel as there''s no support for ethernet card
drivers.. so I had a look at the new kernel-xen. 

And I''ve hit a confusing snag, to do with PAE where I get conflicting 
messages in xend-debug.log.

Two scenarios give different PAE messages:

Scenario 1:
dom0:  kernel-xen-2.6.17-1.2174
domU: kernel-xen-2.6.17-1.2174
This gives the xend-debug.log messages:
ERROR: Non PAE-kernel on PAE host.
ERROR: Error constructing guest OS

Which I thought was odd, as they''re the same kernel?

So I tried switching dom0 back to a non-PAE kernel build.. xen0

Scenario 2:
dom0: kernel-xen0-2.6.17-1.2174
domU: kernel-xen-2.6.17-1.2174
However, when I try to "xm create" the domU this gives me:
ERROR: PAE-kernel on non-PAE host.
ERROR: Error constructing guest OS

So my confusion is that I''m being told that kernel-xen is a PAE kernel 
by the debug, *and* that its a non-PAE kernel by the debug.  I''d have 
thought that scenario 1 above would work.

I checked the files in kernel-xenU and kernel-xen with an "rpm -ql",
and
can''t see any conflicts in /boot - they have separate
filenames for config, initrd, system.map, vmlinuz kernel etc.

Anyone have any idea whats up here, and how I can get kernel-xen to boot 
on the DomU so I can get the pass-through working? (I want to set up one 
of the domU''s as a gateway/proxy/firewall for the others)  I
can''t use
FC6 currently - it has no support for combined software RAID5/LVM2 
setups which is what I''m running for dom0.

My grub.conf on the domU is:

#boot=/dev/xvda
default=1
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
