Console output during boot

Description of problem:
On a x86_64 RHEL-5.3 based host, I can boot a x86_64 rawhide kernel on Xen without trouble. The corresponding i386 PAE kernel crashes & burns with several panic / bug traces during boot.

I can't remember whether rawhide is expected to work in a 32-on-64 environment, but figure we should have a bug to record the problem regardless.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Host kernel: 2.6.18-103.el5.x86_64
Guest: 2.6.27.5-94.fc10.i686.PAE

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  virt-install --location http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/ --name rawhidei386 --ram 500 --nodisks  --paravirt --nographics
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Several bug / panic traces on boot

Expected results:
Boots into installer
