Windows XP and the original and updated FC5 run successfully but FC5 with XEN 
does not boot.
FC3 does not install because it does not recognize the hard disk (Seagate ATA 
ST380110AS).

I dunno - works for me.
How did you install?
You should have both xen and non-xen grub options for both the current and 
previous 
kernel releases, plus XP. In other words, five (5) choices. 

Maybe it's particular to your HW - does the non-xen 2145 kernel work? (assuming 
you have it...)
