So I assume those are XenSource 3rd addons ? Judging from the grub message, I''d say either the kernel was the wrong architecture, or perhaps that kernel is a DomU only variety rather than a combined Dom0/DomU image> One would assume that since FC5 binaries are being made available > someone it running xen on FC5. So, what am I doing wrong?Most people using Xen on FC5 will be using the RPMs that are distributed as part of the official FC5 distro, rather than 3rd party addons.

I saw the rpms on xensource for FC5 which I just happen to have install disc lying on my desk so I went that way. To me FC5 is fungible as what I am after to working POC to demo to get approval for project. Thanks for the reply.
