Hmm. Mine are fine without it...
kernel = "/root/xendom/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.xs0.4.3.268xenU"

you can try the RHEL4 kernels from XenSource if 32-bit is okay;

Yep. That's what I use...

J. Baron has put out 64-bit kernel RPMS for RHEL4 if you need 64-bit:
http://people.redhat.com/riel/RHEL4-Xen-HOWTO
and the kernel RPMs here:
     http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/rhel4/RPMS.kernel/

Good links to know, but not good for the jailtime image...

Note, read the howto;  you need a different modprobe.conf and initrd than
you need for the xensource provided RHEL kernels.

My domU's have no modprobe.conf either...
[root@webdev network-scripts]# ls /etc/mod*
/etc/modprobe.conf.dist
[root@webdev network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
DHCP_HOSTNAME=xena2-dom1

I think redhat is planning on eventually supporting the rhel4 kernels in
DomU mode (Note, this is what I have heard;  I'm not a redhat guy)

Me neither, but I play one in my office... :-)
