We have installed under RHEL5B2 (using virt-manager) winxpsp2 32bit HVM
guest using the physical CDROM drive.  We have not tried FC6 HVM guests
though, but might give that a try this week.  We have installed other
linux HVM guests fine including 64bit. So I know that it is possible to
install HVM windows and HVM linux guests with redhat releases, but not
sure about FC6 and the state of the hypervisor concerning AMD-V support.
It *should* work fine, but unknown as to which changeset is being used
in FC6 currently. Overall, Xen-unstable should work well with AMD-V and
windows guests as of the last few days.
