I should never expect an fc6 of f7 to work nicely with 64MB of memory.
Can u please set the "maxmem = <something greater than 64>" in the guest
configuration file and test after that?

Thanks for the reply. We modified the config file as follows:
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-2943.fc7xen"
memory = 256
name = "fedora.fc6"
vif = [ '' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = ['file:/srv/xen/fedora.fc6.img,sda1,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

But running the same config file on an earlier xen version works (xm create shows domain created). Only when running on xen-3.2-unstable.gz as the hypervisor this error comes.

I have tried both the -xen and -xen0 and -xenU versions for dom0 and domU, which compiled along with xen-3.2-unstable.
