 Nah. Its not there.  This is the content of the initrd that comes with fedora. What you forget is that initrd seems to generated on the fly, because that's the only way it could have had all those silly lvm commands. So that's the basic issue. Fedora generates initrd dynamically, and that has no xenblk.ko inside. Let me see if the ones I have manually created have them.
