Running xen 3

host and guest OS is FC6.

the guest boots but freezes after starting sshd.  Also it fails getting 
IP information for eth0.

xend.log doesn't really show anything wrong

You can see where it locks up at 11:10:54 and doesn't respond until it 
shut it down.

when I mount the img I can see this error "Sep  6 11:12:19 fc6_pristine 
modprobe: FATAL: Could not load 
/lib/modules/2.6.20-1.3001.fc6xen/modules.dep: No such file or directory".

my xend guest cfg is :
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU"
memory = 256
name = "fedora.fc6"
vif = [ '' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = ['file:/usr/virtualServers/fedora.fc6.img,sda1,w', 
'file:/usr/virtualServers/fedora.swap,sda2,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.20-1.3001.fc6.xen.img"
extra = "3"

Thanks in advanced for any help!
