No I haven't tested it out hardware server, I have a single hardware server
on which CentOS 6 is running with Xen 4.4. I don't want to disturb that. I
have tested out Xen HVM virtual machine.

Xen VM in  HVM is as close as I could get to real hardware. PV mode doesn't
emulate hardware. It would be great if someone could actually test it out
on hardware server.
