oops.
The mirror had problems so it was a wrong file. (some 404 html).
Got the correct files now the error is meaningful.

ERROR: Non PAE-kernel on PAE host.
ERROR: Error constructing guest OS

This  kind of mismatch is irrelavent in HVM case, right ? i.e. I can install non-pae HVM DomUs on PAE Dom0 machines ?

Also, got kernels from FC6 and the DomU is starting.  :)

(This is not related to this thread.. but now the installation does not detect any drivers to do either network or CDROM installation)
Thanks

The error “Unrecognized image format” means you didn’t even get as far as checking PAE vs non-PAE, or 64-bit vs 32-bit. The image wasn’t recognised as an Elf image at all. Perhaps you grabbed a native kernel image by mistake? A valid Xen kernel image should be Elf or gzipped Elf. You might want to confirm that (try gunzipping it, then try ‘readelf’ on the result).

I got the domU kernel and ramdisk from one of the fedora mirror from under the xen directory.  From the xend-debug.log it seems you may be right, these may not be PAE kernels.

example site :
 ftp://mirror.eas.muohio.edu/fedora/linux/core/5/i386/os/images/xen/

 The errors in the debug file
 xend-debug.log
  ERROR: Unrecognized image format
