Yes. > - Would this mean that Xen could now boot the OS off RAM ?

If you want to do that you are better off using a different method. Create a ramdisk using ramdiskadm and boot a VM off that. This work essentially gives a slow bootup (5+mins) but blinding fast execution and very fast installation after being booted - since everything is running off RAM.
