I'll second this... I have been able to run this:
Xen Host -> HVM Guest running Xen -> PV Guest
But not HVM inside HVM. I'd guess, and this is only a guess, that
there's a lot more than not being able to pass CPU instructions
through multiple hypervisors, but that is certainly a big deal.
I've run inside of VMWare guests as well, but only to one layer:
VMWare Host -> VMWare Guest -> Xen
Also, even when I could get this to work and actually boot, the
performance was so bad that all systems involved were pretty much
useless...
