We can do it in Source Mage :)
One of our developers is putting this together:
http://wiki.sourcemage.org/Install_under_Xen
I've installed off our install cd and such, however it's because our
installer doesn't rely on anything fancy to make it work. it'll function
without any modules loading or any fancy kernel patches. Your mileage
may vary with other installers. Of course you could give Source Mage a
shot too, you might like it ;)
