Hello,

I am new to Xen.
I have used a pre-created images to start domU's,
but if i want to create a domU from scratch(i have only the installation ISO) - what should i do?
My idea is to do the following:
1) create the image file itself.
2) copy all the files from the location where i installed some distro(for example, hda4 - where fedora is installed) except the files inside /boot partition, to the image file.
3) create initrd and config file.

Is that right?
