I can't seem to get Fedora 8 beta 2 to install as a guest in Centos 5. The original beta 2 and rawhide initrd images just freezes during the initial boot. I am able to install other Centos 5 guests with no problem. Is it possible that the version of Xen (xen-3.0.3-25.0.3.el5) running on the host just doesn't jive right with the newer initrd image? I have successfully installed Beta 2 on an Optiplex 745 with no problems and only ran into a few issues upgrading a Dell XPS 400 running Fedora 7; I just can't seem to get a guest machine going. I have include the results below I see when trying to install a guest. Thanks Ian xm create -c /etc/xen/biggie Using config file "/etc/xen/biggie".
