You want to install the 686 kernel first. If you do an install instead
of an update, the xen kernels will still be there. The install will
add an entry in grub for you so that you can change which kernel you boot
from. After you are happy with the 686 kernel then you can remove the
xen kernels if you want.

Presumably you meant -i, not -e. You can install kernel-devel at the same
time or after you install the matching kernel package.
