Hi,

As far, as I know - yes.
My preferred way - is "install from a nework repo".
Usually works fine for centos/debian.

I think you could try to switch between HVM and PV by changing a few parameters of the VM, as long as you have a Xen enabled kernel in your linux VM :

xe vm-param-set uuid=xxx HVM-boot-params:order=""
xe vm-param-set uuid=xxx HVM-boot-policy=""
xe vm-param-set uuid=xxx PV-bootloader="pygrub"

to switch back to HVM :

xe vm-param-set uuid=xxx HVM-boot-params:order="dc"
xe vm-param-set uuid=xxx HVM-boot-policy="BIOS order"
xe vm-param-set uuid=xxx PV-bootloader=""

Cheers,

Denis

Hello.
Yuo can put iso's on a samba/nfs share and attach it to XCP.
Probably it's the easiest way.

Now by installing from ISO does this make the VM a HVM instead of a PV? I know 
in xen that if I install from ISO that it creates a HVM is this true with XCP 
as well?
