The error “Unrecognized image format” means you didn’t even get as far as checking PAE vs non-PAE, or 64-bit vs 32-bit. The image wasn’t recognised as an Elf image at all. Perhaps you grabbed a native kernel image by mistake? A valid Xen kernel image should be Elf or gzipped Elf. You might want to confirm that (try gunzipping it, then try ‘readelf’ on the result).

I got the domU kernel and ramdisk from one of the fedora mirror from under the xen directory.  From the xend-debug.log it seems you may be right, these may not be PAE kernels.

example site :
 ftp://mirror.eas.muohio.edu/fedora/linux/core/5/i386/os/images/xen/

 The errors in the debug file
 xend-debug.log
  ERROR: Unrecognized image format
  ERROR: Error constructing guest OS
