Kai:
I used yum to install xen and xen-kernel I then edited the grub config and rebooted the server. Using uname -r I verified I was in the right kernel.
I proceeded to use virt-install (and later virt-install --nographics and virt-install --vnc) and none of them will install the guest. It always fails saying that there is no console and to reconnect.
Using xm console ## I try to connect to the console but am given the following error in the qemu log:
qemu: the number of cpus is 1

Jason, I'm surely not going to read the whole tutorial. Tell what exact virt-install command you used and any preparation steps if you did any. (e.g. what did you install to get xen on the system.)
