So I didn't even attempt to install it under HVM. I put this in my config file:

kernel = "/mnt/tftpboot/f15-x86_64/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz"
ramdisk="//mnt/tftpboot/f15-x86_64/images/pxeboot/initrd.img"
extra="console=hvc0 debug earlyprintk=xenboot askmethod vnc"
memory = 1024
name = "Fedora"
vcpus=2
vif = [ 'mac=00:0F:4B:00:00:63,bridge=switch' ]
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/vg_guest_1/FC15,xvda,w' ]
boot = "dnc"
vnc=1
videoram=8
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
vncpasswd=''
stdvga=0
serial='pty'

And was able to install it.
