Before it was actually booting past the [U]EFI stage. And I am not sure why it is faultering oon this. I have turned off UEFI on the Motherboard. Loading Xen 4.10.2.config ... error: file `EFI/fedora/x86_64-efi/module.mod' not found. error: file `EFI/fedora/x86_64-efi/multiboot.mod' not found. error: can't find command `multiboot'. Loading Linux 4.16.3-301.fc28.x86_64 ... error: can't find command `module'. Loading initial ramdisk ... error: file `EFI/fedora/x86_64-efi/module.mod' not found. error: can't find command `module'. Loading Xen 4.10.2.config ... error: file `EFI/fedora/x86_64-efi/module3.mod' not found. error: file `EFI/fedora/x86_64-efi/multiboot3.mod' not found. error: can't find command `multiboot3'.

Loading initial ramdisk ... error: file `EFI/fedora/x86_64-efi/module3.mod' not found. error: can't find command `module2'. I have managed to install, boot, and run F28 in KVM'ed F28 so my hardware is supported properly by KVM.
