Ok, I copied the kernel+initramfs to dom0, changed the configuration file,
and now "xm create -c" works!

So it looks like a pygrub problem..

[root@dom0 ]# cat /etc/xen/f12test-nonmanaged
name = "f12test"
uuid = "dbe06b39-a570-2b98-a2fe-8f17738fd1d5"
maxmem = 512
memory = 512
vcpus = 2
#bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"
kernel = "/root/testfoo/vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.x86_64"
ramdisk = "/root/testfoo/initramfs-2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.x86_64.img"
root = "/dev/mapper/vg_f12test-lv_root"
extra = "ro LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc 
KEYTABLE=fi console=hvc0 earlyprintk=xen"
on_poweroff = "destroy"
on_reboot = "restart"
on_crash = "restart"
disk = [ "phy:/dev/vg_f12test/f12test,xvda,w" ]
vif = [ "mac=00:16:36:36:25:bf,bridge=virbr0,script=vif-bridge" ]
