You can install guest OS from CD ? How?
 
After you've installed a particular distribution once, you 'can' the
pristine install either by tar'ing it up, or using LVM snapshots.
Depending on usage, you may need to do a little tailoring, such as
generating a unique ssh host key.
  
 
That's what I've been doing up to now.
Installing a new guest OS for me is now a matter of
creating new LV - mkfs - untar - create xen config - boot.
 ssh-keys are generated on first guest OS boot, initial IP information 
obtained from DHCP.
No reboot of host OS (Domain-0) necessary.
