Tony and Jim, thanks for your replies.
I will have to reinstall the FC 6 (since it exist no more on my hardisk).

Probably this can be worked around with some poking. Possibly the other-mode install than you used will help (Text vs. Graphics mode).
Tony, I don't understand what you mean.

You probably clicked on the "Virtualization" button. It should probably have "Xen" in the name, and Anaconda should warn before installing that additional work will be needed to boot the machine.
Since, FC 6 selected text install, there was no button to click. I do not remmeber checking box next to Xen.

The second choice is to install with 'linux xdriver=vesa' though the entry will also be in the xorg.conf of the installed system. Before the fix, that is what we would have had to resort to using. After the install, you could take care of the issue.
I guess, I can install, FC 6, boot my machine with FC 4 kernel or 2.6.14.2 which I have built and mount FC 6 / as root. Than copy xorg.conf file.
Do you think this will work ?
