Hi Harry, I too am trying to install "guest" operating systems on a Xen modified RHEL5 kernel. But unfortunately it is not happening. It is unable to locate the install media via NFS or HTTP or FTP...Any help would be appreciated.

In order for the guest operating systems to be able to run they need to have modifications made to their kernel to understand the various instructions that the host gives them via the virtualization software.
