Warning

When installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.1 on a fully virtualized guest, do not

use the kernel-xen kernel. Using this kernel on fully virtualized guests can

cause your system to hang.

If you are using an Installation Number when installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux

5.1 on a fully virtualized guest, be sure to deselect the Virtualization package

group during the installation. The Virtualization package group option installs

the kernel-xen kernel.

Note that paravirtualized guests are not affected by this issue. Paravirtualized

guests always use the kernel-xen kernel.
