If you choose virtualization during the installation, the xen kernel
will be installed as default. Otherwise, the normal kernel should be
chosen. I do however have a system which chose the pae kernel version as
default.

Is the xen kernel slower?I want to uninstall and replace it with a

I do think that the xen kernel would be slower since it would need to
appropriate memory for your guest installations on your machine. I do
not know if it has overhead without guest OSes or not though. Someone
more familiar with xen might know the overhead aspects.
Regarding installing a normal kernel version, 'yum install kernel'
should put the regular kernel onto your system. If you want the devel
package also, you would also choose the kernel-devel package to install.
