===========================
This works after a virt-manager
[root@dhcp-231 xen]# xm create -c russ2
Using config file "./russ2".
Going to boot CentOS (2.6.18-8.el5xen)
kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.el5xen
initrd: /initrd-2.6.18-8.el5xen.img
Started domain russ2
rtc: IRQ 8 is not free.
i8042.c: No controller found.
------------------------------
and this was what I got with a virt-install:
[root@dhcp-231 xen]# xm create -c russ1
Using config file "./russ1".
Going to boot CentOS (2.6.18-8.el5)
kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.el5
initrd: /initrd-2.6.18-8.el5.img
Error: (22, 'Invalid argument')
[root@dhcp-231 xen]#
... pretty glaring bug not to require and to point to a xen kernel
