Hello,

I just tried installing Fedora 13 release candidate as Xen PV guests/domUs:

	- F13 rc 32bit PAE Xen PV guest (kernel 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.i686.PAE)
	- F13 rc 64bit Xen PV guest (kernel 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.x86_64)

Xen dom0 for these tests was RHEL 5.5 x86_64.
I installed F13 guests using virt-manager and http fedora mirror.

Both installed OK, no problems found. Absolute mouse pointer worked OK 
on the graphical console.

RHEL 5.5 has pygrub support for ext4, so having F13 guest 
/boot on ext4 (the default for F13) is not a problem anymore.

I also tested save/restore functionality:

	- F13 64bit guest with 1 and 4 vcpus: save/restore OK.
	- F13 32bit PAE guest with 1 and 4 vcpus: save/restore OK.
