Hi Mike:
Thank you for the link. I have downloaded and installed it. Unfortunately I am
having another problem with PXE boot setup but that is another thread.
There were two problems in the installation guide that caused me problems
initially:
1. The answer file statement:
<admin-interface name="eth0" proto="dhcp" />
Did not work. It caused an HTTP Error 504 during the configuration process.
Changing it to:
<admin-interface name="eth0" proto="dhcp"></ admin-interface>
Fixed it.
2. The absolute paths in the pxlinux.cfg/default file did not work for me.
I kept getting file not found errors on the host. When I made them relative,
it worked:
DEFAULT xenserver
LABEL xenserver
KERNEL mboot.c32
APPEND xenserver/xen.gz dom0_mem=752M com1=115200,8n1 console=com1,tty
--- xenserver/vmlinuz xencons=hvc console=hvc0 console=tty0
answerfile=http://10.45.2.1/tcc/xenserver/answerfile install ---
xenserver/install.img
I am keeping complete notes of my experience. When it works, I will clean them
and send them over, if that would be helpful.
Cheers,
Joe

Joe,
The rpm should have been available from the website, but it looks like
it got removed some time ago. We've put it back up here:
http://www.xen.org/files/XenCloud/Software/xapi-xe-0.2-unknown.i686.rpm
If you have any comments on the XenServer or XCP documentation, you can
forward it to this list.
