[Fedora-xen] Fedora 10 on RHEL5.3 x86_64

[Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer]

Hello Mike,

I've been browsing the web for I've been having the same issue you
describe in the email attached below...  Have you made any progress?

I've been able to install F10 on RHEL 5.3 but only has an HVM.  Now I'm
trying to switch it to paravirt and no luck.  It just doesn't even start
booting.  Creating an empty shell and telling it to use F10 initrd and
kernel yields the same result.

I should get more time to investigate this week but I was wondering if
you figured it out?

Best,
