Reverting to 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5xen0 fixes this problem.

We had a little snafu when pushing out the updates. The 2.6.18 kernel
which was pushed out includes Xen 3.0.3 APIs, but we forgot to push
the corresponding userspace bits (xen & libvirt RPMs). Because upstream
Xen developers saw fit to break ABI compatability for Dom0 control APIs
in 3.0.3 the older bits don't work :-(

We've got the neccessary updates in  the 'updates-testing' repository
as of a few hours ago, so if you want to try them out use:

 yum --enablerepo=updates-testing install xen libvirt

I'm sorry I was too busy to test these until they made "updates" proper.

However, having upgraded now to the new xen and libvirt packages, it still doesn't work, and reverting to 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5xen0 does _not_ fix the problem. I now have a machine which can't boot any of its slices.

I will test more xen and libvirt packages if they can be made available. I've got about 24 hours before I'll need to chicken out and either find the old packages on a stale mirror somewhere, or restore from tape.
