Dear colleagues!

My server is an opteron 280 (x86_64) running with 4GB memory. Install
distributive Fedora Core 6 (x86_64) with support of system virtualized XEN.
#uname -a
Linux srv-bd3.mup-uga.vrn.ru 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6xen #1 SMP Fri Nov 10 12:57:36
EST 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I would like to establish guest OS i386. Too FC6. At installation the
mistake stands out:

If to install guest OS FC6 (x86_64) install and run is normal. Whether there
is an opportunity to install as guest FC6 (i386) on FC6 (x86_64)?
