Newbie Q's xen kernel + others?

[Frank Murphy]

Hi

Couldn't find some info via google.

F13 x86_64
Fedora no longer seems to have a kernel-xen.
If I try add xen via Virt-Manager,
I get no xen kernel.

I already have qemu installed,
If I get xen up and running can it
also use the already installed *.img files?

As the host is x86_64, it will only guest x86_64, correct?

Xen supports 32-on-64, so you can run 32bit guests on 64bit hypervisor.

Followed linked page, now getting on boot:
Starting udev: udevd[815]: can not read 
'/etc/udev/rules.d/xen-backend.rules'

udevd[815]: can not read '/etc/udev/rules.d/xend.rules'

Still no xend in chkconfig --list

Sounds like you haven't installed xen rpms.
