I have a few questions about kernels in Xen.

1. Is it possible to use different kernel versions for dom0 and domU?
My needs are very specific: the host needs to have the xen dom0 2.6.18
kernel and the guests need the 2.6.23 kernel.

2. Does anyone know how to create a kernel image from the 2.6.23.9
kernel that will successfully boot a domU guest?  The problem I am
having is that the compile creates a bzImage, but that is unusable as
Xen needs a zImage kernel.  Is there any way to get my kernel to work
as a Xen guest?
