I dont see any domU kernels inside /boot. Can anyone tell me what package
contains these? I havent been able to find any on the centos mirrors (so

The kernel/initrd for installing RHEL / CentOS are in the install media
under  $ROOT/images/xen/

Boot those & it'll take you into anaconda. Once the anaconda install is
complete the guest filesystem will contain the suitable kernel/initrd for
running the live system. In dom0 use  bootloader="/usr/bin/pygrub" to
boot the guest using the kernel/initrd from inside the guest filesytem
Dan? Please look before you say things like this. He's not talking about the installation media, he's talking about the actual kernels on DomU's, as installed in /boot.

RedHat doesn't publish kernel-xenU packages for RHEL 5, only kernel-xen packages. That's why he won't find one. The kernel-xen packages work fine: You could probably build your own optimized kernel-xenU, but I don't see much reason to do so. Do you?
