I think this is misleading you in the wrong direction. That doesn't say
anything about which IP the guest is using. Actually it had a public IP
address, so I could install via FTP from a CentOS mirror.
That local IP above just means that the VM is running on localhost and not
on another machine.

I edited it to get the http interface to it. You can then access it on
port 8000 via http. (I see only two root slashes, though, when connecting.
But I assume that's normal since it thinks there are no VMs available at
the moment.) As I said I did that *after* hitting the problem, as you can
also see from the save time. So, that file sure is okay.
What I don't udnerstand is how xend or xm determines where the image file
is located. I can't see that anywhere. And the same applies to how it
determines that a file in /etc/xen configures an existing VM and others
are only samples. There must be another information store that has this
information. I browsed thru the RHEL Virtualization Guide and some other
documents, but couldn't find any clues to this.
