Have you had any success with using virt-install with a distribution
which is not the same as your Dom0? The FC7 docs imply that you can
only install FC7 guests, so I haven't tried it.
It's not true. For paravirtualized guests, you can use virt-install to
install any guests which follow the packaging method followed by RHEL
for its distribution. By this I mean, there should be a xenified kernel
and initrd image for the virt-install to kick off the booting at
xen/images in the installation tree. So any versions of RHEL (4.5 and
above), Centos (4.5 and above), Fedora (fc5 and above) should work fine
without any problems.
For fully virtualized guests, I have so far been successful to install
debian, ubuntu and windows, so far tested, using virt-install/virt-manager.

Moving the jailtime image to LVM is a pain, so I'd prefer virt-install
if it does the job.
Thanks
