I did the favor of making a new thread for this...
Firstly. If you have not yet,
http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstart
I can tell you that even since FC4 was released, Xen has changed a lot.
Since the FC4 packages are reflecting the 3.0 development, using the Xen
2.0 user guide is not 100% accurate, I have tried. Also, it seems that
the latest FC release 1447 of Xen is noticably different than the 1398
release, as some of the xm commands are different. Personally I would
expect future releases to do the same so I suggest test any upgrades on
a staging server.
*About Network: *As long as you have nics=1 in your conf file for your
domU, the network device should be available in your guest OS as eth0.
In Redhat-esque style, you would edit your network config in
/etc/sysconfig/. I just copied /etc/sysconfig/network* from another
machine, and did a
grep -rin "192.168.0.3" /etc/sysconfig/*
for the IP of the machine I took the config from, and updated to the new
IP for my domU.
As far as *installing OS* other than FC4 inside of domU, I have
installed CentOS. Here are the steps I have used. I imagine you can
use this for any distro that uses Yum.
1. Create my image (I use LVM, but you can use loopback), mke2fs -j
to that image
2. Temporarily move /etc/yum.repos.d/* files out of that directory
3. Copy Centos-Base.repo into /etc/yum.repos.d/
4. Edit Centos-Base.repo to replace all the of variables with the
values you want. Yum can''t install for a different releasever
and
basearch, so you set these by hand in the repo file. You could
also install from local filesystem like DVD by using file://
instead of http in the repo file.
5. Mount the image to /mnt/tmpdir
6. yum --installroot=/mnt/tmpdir -y groupinstall Base
7. Follow the rest of the steps in the Fedora Xen Howto for the rest.
I also have been running Gentoo 2005.0 which I moved over from
User-Mode-Linux.
Hope this helps.

I installed FC4 from cd and chose to install everything,
including Xen.
Following the Xen User''s manual Xen v2.0 for x86 I have a dom0
setup and
created a second domain and called it rawhide.
Question,
How do I configure rawhide with an IP so I can either ssh or
telnet to
it?
Have you installed other operating systems, i.e. RedHat EL3.0 to
run in
a domain?
Thanks,
