I am creating a CentOS DomU on Debian lenny.
I am following this guide.
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/InstallingCentOSDomU
I created two volume groups.
One for swap another for root.

I downloaded kernels and initrd from here
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/x86_64/images/xen/vmlinuz
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/x86_64/images/xen/initrd.img

I did not wanted to create a kickstart file.
Here is centos5.cfg file I created.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen-install"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-xen-install"
#extra = "text ks=http://localhost/minimal-ks-x86_64.cfg";
extra = "text"
name = "centos5"
memory = "1024"
root = '/dev/xvda ro'

disk        = [
                  'phy:/dev/virtualization/centos5-swap,xvda1,w',
                  'phy:/dev/virtualization/centos5-disk,xvda2,w',
              ]


vif = [ 'bridge=eth2', ]
vnc=1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
vncpasswd='boguspasswd'
vcpus=1
on_poweroff='destroy'
on_reboot = 'destroy'
on_crash = 'destroy'
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this .cfg file wrong.

Any help would be appreciated.
I am getting some error as Hotplug script not working.
How should I proceed ?
Some one suggested me to use vnc.I am not running Gnome Display on
Dom0 is it still possible
install by using vnc?
