I'm also a new user of Xen. I follow the steps describes here too:

http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstart

And use the following RPM:

http://people.redhat.com/riel/xen_for_fc4/

I'm running Xen on a 2 GB system.  When starting a XenU system I have
the following error:

domain: (2, 'No such file or directory')

but if the system is configured for less than 384 MB it juste work. But
I need to use up to 768 MB.

So I try the kernel from XenSource:

http://bits.xensource.com/Xen/latest/xen-3.0-x86_32-fc4.bin.tar

I'm able to boot but when starting the XenU system provided here
(because there is no XenU RPM provided from XenSource):

http://people.redhat.com/riel/xen_for_fc4/

I have the following error:

Error: Error creating domain: (0, 'Error')

I also try Xen and XenU kernel from the Fedora Core 4 but the Xen kernel
don't even boot and the XenU kernel with the kernel Xen from XenSource
give the same error.

So if someone has already used Xen on a Fedora Core 4 and has a working
solution I'm open.
