I am a newbie too, but I can answer of your some questions:

> Is setting up Xen similar to installing a distro ... ?
That is different. Xen use paravirtualizaion technique, so the kernel
must be tweaked a little bit. You cannot install distro in normal way.
Please read the Xen manual at homepage.

Also take a look at the papers at
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/architecture.html to
understand about Xen's architecture.

regards,
AQ
