So, the good news is that I got it working... the bad news seems to
be that
everytime I want to update the domU kernel, I have to install it, shut down
the domU, loop mount domU, create custom initrd and reboot. Rinse and
repeat for each fc5 domU. If anyone has a way that this can be done within the
domU so I can automate it w/out having to go to the dom0, that would be great..
RedHat is unwilling to fix this:

Perhaps some people should get together and start a yum repository to address
this issue through alternative means.
