[Xen-users] PV guest kernel location

[Gregory Gee <gregory.gee@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Still new at this and was wondering if someone could give me some 
pointers.  I have Xen 3.0.4 running great with 5 PV guests.  I just 
followed setup instructions from a few wiki pages.  But the one thing I 
noticed, is that the guest kernel is on the host.  Below is the cfg file 
for my mail server guest.
#  -*- mode: python; -*-
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16.33-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-2.6.16.33-xen"
memory = 256
name = "mail"
vif = ['bridge=xenbr0']
disk = 
['file:/vserver/mail/guest_base2G.img,hda1,w','file:/vserver/mail/guest_swap256M.img,hda2,w','phy:data/mail,hda3,w']
ip = "192.168.10.43"
netmask = "255.255.255.0"
gateway = "192.168.10.1"
hostname = "mail"
root = "/dev/hda1 ro"
extra = "4"

 I see post talking about 32bit guests on 64bit hosts.  How do you do 
that?  My main question is, how can I create a PV guest that is self 
contained for files?  I want to pick up my guest and move it to another 
system without worrying if the same kernel is available on the new 
host.  I can't seem to find a wiki that gives these types of instructions.
 Can the kernel be copied into the guest and the guest boot from those 
file?  How would my above cfg change?
Thanks in advance for any help provided.
Greg
