Henning,

I also haven't managed to boot a domU different from FC5 on my FC5 dom0.
But I have different problems. Maybe there are some points of interest 
for you in this anyway...
You report that when trying to boot xend complains about not finding the 
kernel image file.
I disabled selinux in domU and dom0 and then that went away...

I also have no trouble at all working the normal way of booting with a 
kernel in dom0 and not using pygrub (which you obviously need if you 
want to domU to boot a kernel which is placed in domU itself).
My domUs (debian 3.1, fedora 4 - all happily managing to run on 
different dom0) boot up to different points. Usually they get stuck 
around mounting the ext3 filesystem... So I'm still working on that...
So I'd be happy if we could mutually keep track of our efforts and 
hopefully successes!
Bye,
Andrej
