This needs to be 'hvm'  since the rest of your config file
is for an HVM guest.

OK, thanks.

Or you need to configure it to be a paravirt guest - ie point the 'kernel'
param to the Xen kernel & get rid of the cdrom & device_model args.

Does this mean I have to get hold of a different kernel for FC7 which is paravirtualized?
Can you help me find such a kernel or do I have to compile one myself?
Is this the "kernel-xen" package or is kernel-xen intended to be used for Dom0 (i.e. when fc7 is the host, not the guest)?

Thanks,
