Yes, you'll need to copy xen.gz and vmlinuz-2.4.26-xen0 on to
your /boot partition and add a new grub config entry. (See REAME.CD)

Yes

Yes. Its possible that some installations might rely on things
like 'devfs' that aren't compiled into the default build of
Linux-xen, but you could enable these in the normal way (or just
edit you /etc/fstab).
