The 'Invalid argument' message normally means that the guest kernel you
are trying boot does not match the requirements of the host kernel. For
example, you tried to boot a non-PAE guest on a PAE host, or vica-verca.
RHEL-5 i686 Xen kernels are PAE enabled. I'm guessing the CentOS guest
you tried was based off the XenSource suplied kernels which I think are
built with PAE disabled.
On the second point - the host should never hang in the way you describe.
Since this is a pre-release of the RHEL-5 kernel, please report this hang
problem back to the Red Hat Bugzilla (or via our partner support channels)
so that it can be investigated further.
Regards,
Dan.
