xenguest-install.py nfs problems

[Tom Spec]

!-- DIV {margin:0px;}-->!-- DIV {margin:0px;}-->When I run xenguest-install.py on
FC5, it always gives me the following error after "What is the install
location?":

Invalid NFS location given

I have tried two different methods that work for me for regular installations,but I
can't get this script to work.

1) Specify the location that contains the Fedora Core .iso files
2) Specify the location that contains the "Fedora" directory (and subsequently
all the RPMs)

Can someone tell me exactly what xenguest-install.py is looking for in an NFS install 
location?

Note:  It does seem to be mounting the NFS directory, it's just that it tells me
it's invalid.

Any help would be appreciated.

# rpm -qa | grep xen
kernel-xen0-2.6.16-1.2122_FC5
xen-3.0.2-0.FC5.3

I've found that the key thing it's looking for is an FC5 install area.  Are
you trying to install a non-Fedora system?

In the beginning, there was nothing, then God said, "Let there be light."
And there was light.  There was still nothing, but you could see it a lot
better.

Hi

I need to use /dev/ttyS0 in one of the virtual machines.
I have been facing a lot of problem with regard to that.

domU config:
interrupt = [ 4 ]
ioports = [ "3f8-3ff" ]

but an error is reported 
[root@ccc ~]# echo s> /dev/ttyS0
bash: /dev/ttyS0: No such device or address

Thanks in advance

Sanjam
