Re: [Xen-users] XEN on CentOS 5.5 - Cannot create VM using Local Install (grayed out)
Are you trying to do a ParaVirtualized server? If so, I believe that Network install is the only option. You can''t use a local install method. To use the local install method, you must create an HVM (Fully Virtualized) VM.
