First of all, why on earth would you want to use FC6? FC8 is available.
I prefer RHEL/CentOS 5.1 though. Other than its long lifetime, RHEL 5's
virt-manager creates domU config as a file on /etc/xen, so (for me) it's
easier to manage
1) I downloaded fedora.fc6.20070313.img.tar.bz2_FILES.gz from
jailtime.org <http://jailtime.org>
In that case contact jailtime.org people.
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen"
I would prefer to use pygrub and have domU kernel located on domU, which
is what you get by default if you use virt-manager.
Starting sshd: [ OK ]

the boot hangs here. tried a lot to figure this out but nothing works.

You probably need to edit /etc/inittab and get mingetty to start on xvc0
or ttyS0. This is a somewhat advanced configuration, so (given your
questions) I would recommend that you start with Centos 5.1 and
virt-manager.
2) I tried to install fc6 domU using virtual manger.
i created a disk image of size 3GB.
used apache to mount my dvd to /var/www/html/fc6
*and started virtual manager. everything went fine and the GUI console
started the fc6 installation from dvd. After some time i get the error
cannot find the file
/images/minstg2.img

I am using an adsl modem for connecting to internet and so i access
net through the interface ppp0. the following is my ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:11:09:15:EF:20
inet addr:192.168.1.2 <http://192.168.1.2>
Bcast:192.168.1.255 <http://192.168.1.255> Mask:255.255.255.0
<http://255.255.255.0>
virbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet addr: 192.168.122.1 <http://192.168.122.1>
Bcast:192.168.122.255 <http://192.168.122.255> Mask:255.255.255.0
<http://255.255.255.0>
the following is the output of *brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
virbr0 8000.000000000000 no
xenbr0 8000.feffffffffff no peth0
vif0.0

This shows that your domU is bridged to eth0. It MIGHT work, if you have
DHCP on eth0's network or you configure domU's ip address correctly. I
recommend you choose "Virtual Network" instead of "Shared physical
devices" when creating domU through virt-manager, which would bridge
domU's interface to virbr0 and NAT-ed to outside world.
is the problem because of having a ppp connection or something else.
plz help.
No, it shouldn't matter in this case.
