Hi Andrew

I tried as you suggested .. but since 2.6.16-xen does not exist under Suse 
depmod complained and when I created the dir and reran depmod it just created 
empty files (since there are no modules anyway I guess) ..

Qn:  Should I install Xen also under the guest (domU) OSs and then try running 
them from within FC ?

Cheers
Srini
