Thanks, unfortunately I am back a step because that I thought was the
kernel was only a directory. I can't find the kernel anywhere on the
guest that I just installed which gets back to the issue that
xen-tools assumes I am working from a Debian install and the DomU
kernel is available on the host. Do I need to get a source package
and recompile the Debian kernel on Fedora 8 or can I find a binary
somewhere? In either case which kernel will I need to use to have it
work for a paravirtualized DonU?
