Hey Marcelo,
Do not expect to get a lot of help here about Xen. So far I have seen three post about Xen
on the beta release and no (zero) replies. Either those who have success are not talking or
nobody has had any success, I suspect the latter with the beta release. Just have to wait
for the final release. I would suggest that you spend some time with the manuals, as that
seems to be the only source for answers.
