Yes, initrd's can be a pain with Fedora.

You can also get more information to debug problems by
launching with
a console (#xm create -c <domname>).  This will show
you the VM booting,
and you'll be able to see errors such as module failures due
to a lack
of an initrd.

You can also get more information to debug problems by launching with
a console (#xm create -c <domname>).&nbsp; This will show you the VM booting,

of an initrd.

Thanks Steve, any possible pointers or URLs?
