I'm running into this on FC5:

What does the xend-debug.log say?


The physical hardware is 2GB and I'm creating xen guests running:

What is a 2GB physical hardware? Can you explain? Probably you mean RAM or Harddisk, but I don't see what it has to do with your problem. the PAE extensions you mention are only needed with more than 4GB of RAM, so I don't see why you should need it.


xenguest-install.py -n xendomain1 -f /home/xen/xendomain1 -s 25 -r 256 -l http://ops1.rnmd.net/fedora/core/5/i386/os -x ks= http://ops1.rnmd.net/kickstart/cfgs/ks-fedora-core-5-xen-guest.cfg <http://ops1.rnmd.net/kickstart/cfgs/ks-fedora-core-5-xen-guest.cfg>

That's a a fedora-specific script, and it might be better supported on the fedora-xen mailing list. If it creates a xen config that is unable to be started, it has some bug probably.
