I'm trying to boot Ubuntu 12.04 LTS precise i386 as domU after a clean installation on Fedora F17 and/or F18 dom0 fully updated. VmError: (2, 'Invalid kernel', 'elf_xen_note_check: ERROR: Will only load images built for the generic loader or Linux images')
It seems that pygrub doesn't like your guest kernel (or possibly is failing to download them). Do you know what file format Ubuntu uses for these kernels?
Looks a normal vmlinuz image

It might be that pygrub picks something else - not the vmlinuz but say multiboot.c32.
If you run pygrub -i <the disk image> and pick the right menu option - what does the command spit out?

then terminate with:

looks like it isn't detecting grub2, right?
I've found the reason of my problem. Basically it seems that the installed kernel isn't the required "-virtual" but instead the "-generic" one. So, during the installation I have selected to manually install the right kernel package once requested by the installer. Thus everything went ok.
