When I needed to build Xen guests under Debian I could

I might be missing something, but that link seems to talk
about FAI and doesn't mention xen. I'm interested in seeing
how it can install on the LVM partition but the OS doesn't
see it as an entire disk with a partition table. What does
"fdisk -l" show, then?
Here is a good link: http://wiki.rpath.com/wiki/Xen_DomU_Guide
Based on that link, this seems like a regular install of Xen
onto a LVM partition. I thought Amos was referring to some
special setup.
CentOS can definitely do this. Just setup LVM, and then
manually edit the /etc/xen/myvm file so that the disk line is:
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/myvg/mylv,xvda,w', ]
