I've been using SuSE 10.1 quite happily to run Xen. I use yast2 dirinstall
from the xen server on the 'disk' assigned for the virtual machine. Then a
few tweaks to the /etc/fstab and /etc/inittab files and I can create the
virtual machine.
One gotcha is that you need to disable any update installation sources on the
xen server as the zen update stuff gets in a mangle and won't release the
mounted disk for ages. I think it's getting confused over what needs updating
on the server and the dirinstall area. Just run the update from within the
virtual machine after you've got networking set up.
