[Xen-users]Problem in the very first step of installation of xen

["Sanjib Kumar Das" <Sanjib.Kumar.Das@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everybody,

I'm a Junior Undergraduate trying to install Xen on Fedora core 5 version of Red Hat Linux.
I tried the command :
yum install kernel-xen0 to which I got the following messages:
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories 
base

[2/2]
Reading repository metadata in from local files 
Excluding Packages in global exclude list

Parsing package install arguments
No match for argument: kernel-xen0
Nothing to do

Then I checked my /boot/grub/grub.conf file  to look for any newly-created entries in it.It looked like as follows:

# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
#          root (hd0,0)
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda3
#          initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=10

        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
        initrd /initrd-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.16-1.2096_FC5)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
        initrd /initrd-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.16-1.2080_FC5)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
        initrd /initrd-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5.img

I could not find any new entry for the xen hypervisor.Do I have to
manually edit this file.I have already edited the /etc/sysconfig/kernel
file to set the DEFAULT to kernel-xen0.

Please help me fix my problem.

Thanks in advance.
Sanjib
