I'm currently using FC4 with this kernel and xen build. http://people.redhat.com/riel/xen_for_fc4/ Works great for me (well the best so far :-) I'm looking to use Centos4.2, but I have (at least) 2 problems. 1. The stock glibc causes a performance problem with tls - which I need to use. I know many people move the tls lib out of the way - but I need it. Glibc needs to be recompiled with a magic flag (sorry don't have it to hand at the moment) and currently the rhel/centos kernels are broken for building glibc. I now have a patched kernel which seems to build glibc OK. 2. There are xen patches to apply to the kernel and I don't know how easy they are to apply to the heavily modified rh kernel? I know many people use a vanilla kernel, but I hoped I could modifiy the rh/centos one. This is on my list to do.

I use this basic procedure http://trac.samhart.net/trac/wiki/rpmstrap_CentOS4 but rather than use a chroot dir - I create some loopback filesystems which I then mount in Xen. Does that help or do you need more detail?
