* Boot a domU from a floppy? (Can't tell you how to configure it, but I assume
it's possible)
* I don't recall seeing a CD based dos/pcdos install .., but that would be an

* Install DOS on a real machine, boot knoppix or dsl from CD and use 'dd' to
copy the raw
hard drive to the file/lvm based xen device.
* Create the appropriate config file ...
