Hi all,

Somebody knows how can I install a debian (etch or lenny) domU para-virtualized guest under rhel5 xen host?? Or is it only possible to install as a hvm guest??

Install, as in "boot the install disk and ...?"

I don't think Debian supports that, I believe its scripts use debootstrap.

How to do it depends on what you want, but one or more separate single filesystems that appear at /dev/hda{1,2,3} are easiest. Just mount them appropriately someplace, maybe /tmp/etch/ and untar* something into it. You will need to do some fiddling to get it to actually boot - creating a similarly-structured Fedora system and then replacing its files might be close.

* Or boot one of the live CDs that abound, and run debootstrap to fill it.

there might be better clues here: http://xen-tools.org/software/xen-tools
