RE: [Xen-users] Redhat EL 5.2 guest on Redhat EL 5.2 host
 
This seems to be picked up by the installer - it now goes directly to
TCP/IP settings.
After entering them manually, as there is no DHCP server, it goes to a
blue screen and does nothing further.
If my host is set to 10.0.0.1 I'm using 10.0.0.2. Should I be using some
bridge IP instead?
Any ideas?

Thanks.
That's what I'm trying now, I'm glad I'm on the right track...
FYI it's a paravirtual guest I'm installing.

If you're installing a paravirtual guest with virt-manager or 
virt-install then try loop-back mounting the installation DVD where it 
can be seen through a web browser and then use its url as the location 
for installation. Check that the URL works from some other machine 
before you do the installation :-)
If you're installing a hardware virtual guest, then install a 
paravirtual guest instead: performance is generally quite a lot better.
