I found one more little issue to stumble over :)
I tried (among others) the following kernel:
kernel-xen-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i686.rpm and the initrd from a (freshly rsynced) images/xen/ directory.
When the domU is created it comes up properly, and automatically preloads the xenvbd module,
but not xennet. I extracted the initrd and found the xennet module there, but it seems not possible
to load it from the network driver dialog (it's not listed). I'm confused as I also tried an fc5 kernel + initrd, and also
a rhel5 beta kernel+initrd. I think the issue is somewhere with the initrd, but don't really found a hook to
change anything, maybe short of rebuilding the initrd using --preload xennet
If You're successfully installing FC6 domU's from within xen, please speak up!
the following are the relevant settings from the domU configfile
kernel = "/mnt/xendistro_temp//vmlinuz"
ramdisk = "/mnt/xendistro_temp/initrd.img"
extra = "ks= http://192.168.199.4/ks_fc6.cfg"
ip = "192.168.199.5"
netmask = "255.255.255.0"
gateway = " 192.168.199.1"
