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

 

 *** image /local/domain/0/backend/vbd/5/768 format raw driver 

 0x80e7940

 

 *** image /local/domain/0/backend/vbd/5/5632 format raw driver

 Could not initialize SDL - exiting

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.)
