Hello list,
I want to virtualize my physical CentOS 4.5 yet. Therefor I download the CentOS 4.5 iso. After mounting the iso on my notebook and make the mounted iso available via nfs I start on my CentOS 5 xen machine following command:
virt-install -n myServer --ram=512 -f /virt/myServer.disk -s 150 --nographics -p --location=nfs:nbk:/media/centos
This works for CentOS 5 DomUs but CentOS 4.5 brings following error:

Any suggestions? Thanks.
I see that you're using x86_64 ... is the CentOS 4.5 iso that you've downloaded also x86_64 ?
