What exactly did you do? Which kernel (exact name and version) failed
to install correctly in your domU? Is it reproducible by forcing a
reinstall?
I use the latest fedora-xen kernel of the dom0 to run the xenu's. Even to get
those to run with FC3 is relatively easy, and mostly involves getting newer
module-init-tools and udev/hotplug disabled (you don't need since you have
no real hardware, but older nash-hotplug gets confused)
