Hi, I have a tar of an centos file system that was previously a xen
vm, I want to recreate a vm using this un-tared set of files. What is
the best way to do this?

I am brand new to xen, but have a fedora setup running a xen base vm
and I have virtual machine manager. I tried it that way but it wanted
an image file or regular cd to create an image.

thanks
Joel
