Sorry, but I''m not clear on which kernel version which release of
RedHat
uses. If RHEL4 uses 2.6-kernel, it shouldn''t be too much of a task. A
2.4 kernel won''t work straight away with Xen 3.0, so you''d be
choosing
between back-porting the 2.6 kernel patches to 2.4, or upgrading your
kernel to 2.6 keeping the remaining tools the same...
You should be able to build such a PV domain by installing RHEL4 on a
clean partition (or taking an existing installation) and pointing the
Xen PV kernel to use that partition as the file-system. There are other
ways that are a bit more complex...
