I notice if I select Virtualization as the category during the installation  
that I get Xen and not KVM. If I don't select it and select "Customize Now"  
I see an Virtualization category with KVM and Xen as it's subcategories.  
Here I only select the KVM subcategory and when I boot....I get the Xen  
kernel again with not KVM. How do I get KVM installed? The packages seem to  
be there but all I get is this Xen kernel:

# more /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.18-158.el5xen (mockbuild at ls20-bc1-14.build.redhat.com)  
(gcc version 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44)) #1 SMP Mon J
