Have you tried the RPMs on the XenSource website? They''re for PAE Xen on Centos 4.4. Alternatively, if you ran CentOS 5 it has Xen 3.0.3 virtualisation baked in along with the virt-manager administration tool. I run Xen on CentOS 4.4 which I installed from xen-unstable. You do need to build an initrd in order to boot CentOS because of its use of udev and the root=LABEL=/ syntax it uses. You should also disable TLS. CentOS 5 will take care of this for you, if you don''t mind using a slightly old version of Xen (I''ve heard there''ll be an update to 3.0.5 or somesuch when the RHEL / CentOS 5.1 release emerges). Hope that helps. If you''re keen on getting your existing system to work, we''ll need more information on what the panic message is.

I installed Xen with CentOS using an earlier version of this guide: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstartFC4 Markus Hardiyanto wrote:> hello, > > I''ve been trying to installing Xen 3.0.4 on centos 4.4.
