Actually, the problem is not being able to boot off a cd/dvd, not that you
can't read it. Some distros provide a xen kernel image on the install disk,
and virt-manager/Yast, etc. extract that image to /tmp to boot off of, then
proceed with the normal install.
Thanks for taking the time to respond Jim, but I don't think I was
clear in my question.
I have a dom0 already and want to install fedora8, I make a config
file for the new domU and in the config file I reference the .iso
image of the fedora install dvd. I then 'xm create fedoraConfig' and
it boots off of the .iso referenced in the config file. I go through
the install and install all that I want.
I then change the config file from boot='d' to 'boot='c' and reboot
the new domU.
After it comes up, is it a PV or HVM guest?
Jon
