Hi All,
What is "Fedora , with Xen"?
The red dot in the middle is the flash shooting through my finger.
$ rpm -qa | grep -i "xen|fedora" fedora-icon-theme-1.0.0-28.fc33.noarch fedora-logos-38.1.0-1.fc38.noarch fedora-release-identity-basic-38-36.noarch fedora-logos-httpd-38.1.0-1.fc38.noarch fedora-logos-classic-38.1.0-1.fc38.noarch fedora-gpg-keys-38-1.noarch fedora-release-38-36.noarch fedora-repos-38-1.noarch fedora-release-common-38-36.noarch libreport-fedora-2.17.11-1.fc38.x86_64 fedora-release-matecompiz-38-36.noarch fedora-repos-modular-38-1.noarch fedora-rpm-macros-26-14.fc38.noarch edk2-ovmf-xen-20230524-3.fc38.noarch libvirt-daemon-xen-9.0.0-3.fc38.x86_64 xen-licenses-4.17.2-1.fc38.x86_64 xen-libs-4.17.2-1.fc38.x86_64 xen-hypervisor-4.17.2-1.fc38.x86_64 xen-runtime-4.17.2-1.fc38.x86_64 xen-4.17.2-1.fc38.x86_64

Guessing its Fedora running on the Xen Hypervisor maybe? https://xenproject.org/ or with support for it atleast?

I am running qemu-kvm. But I do not remember every running Xen? Maybe 15 years ago?
Can I get rid of Xen? And how?

Found this:
# find /boot -iname *xen* /boot/xen-4.17.2.config /boot/xen-4.17.2.gz /boot/flask/xenpolicy-4.17.2
But it only one instance. I have severn showing at boot time.

And in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg I found a whole YUGE section of it titled:
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ### menuentry 'Fedora, with Xen 4.17.2 and Linux 6.4.7-200.fc38.x86_64' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os --class xen $menuentry_id_option 'xen- <several hundreds of lines later> ### END /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ###
Can I delete 20_linux_xen and the 20_linux_xen section from grub.cfg?

Xen on fedora does a bit of a kludge to sort out its boot menu but it probably means the kernels it is finding are somewhere on your computer, possibly on other partitions.

You can remove it the same way as any other packages, just make sure you have booted without xen by booting from one of the non-xen boot menu entries beforehand.
dnf remove xen-licenses xen-hypervisor xen-runtime xen should remove most or all of the xen packages. xen-libs may still be required by other packages.

<several hundreds of lines later> ### END /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ###
Can I delete 20_linux_xen and the 20_linux_xen section from grub.cfg?
Followup:
I opened a qemu-kvm virtual machine I have of FC38 for testing before I migrate to the host FC38 machine.
It had a /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen, but the /boot/grub2/grub.cfg had
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ### ### END /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ###
So I removed all the xen stuff between the comment to match my virtual machine, rebooted and happy camping has returned.
I left /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen alone.
