Let's just say, I'm in a limited environment and this is not an option at the moment. I think there is some value in a wiki page documenting the method of creating a WinXP Xen guest using the command-line. Considering the various pages I've run into while collecting info to produce my process, I'm not the only one trying to do this. Besides, if we are trying to convert Windows administrators, we have to keep it simple. (I am not suggesting that Windows admins are not smart. Just that we need to make the learning curve manageable.) > And as an alternative option one can start vncviewer on the workstation > and connect to the "correct" port of the Xen server.

Using a VNC Viewer on a remote workstation to complete the WinXP install is where I'd be going with the page.
