You are right. I have retry with the package from xensource
(xen-3.0.0-2.1_fc4.i386.rpm,  xen-kernel-2.6.12-xen3_2.1_fc4.i686.rpm)
using the kernel for dom0 and domU and I just work.

If it help other, here is my grub.conf after installing the RPMs:

title Fedora Core (2.6.12-xen3)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /boot/xen-3.gz dom0_mem=128M
        module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen ro root=LABEL=/
        module /boot/initrd-2.6-xen.img

And here is one of my VM conf:

kernel ="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12.6-xen3_2.1_fc4"
memory = 768
name = "gi"
nics = 1
disk = ['file:/var/vm/gi.img,sda1,w']
root = "/dev/sda1"
extra = "ro selinux=0 3"

Thanks a lot for your help.

Daniel
