If I remove the xen kernel, won't I be left with NO kernel? :( Or > does removing the xen kernel somehow magically revert to the non-xen > kernel? You want to install the 686 kernel first. If you do an install instead of an update, the xen kernels will still be there. The install will add an entry in grub for you so that you can change which kernel you boot from. After you are happy with the 686 kernel then you can remove the xen kernels if you want. > 2.

You can install kernel-devel at the same time or after you install the matching kernel package.
