Pasi,

A few comments about the HOWTO.

You recommend to disable SELinux. SELinux underwent very significant updates between RHEL5 and RHEL6 and I would encourage you to try keeping it enabled. I wouldn't be surprised if it "just works".

In case you need to provide an additional SELinux policies, here are guidelines for SELinux policy modules: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/SELinux/PolicyModules. I am a fan of having policy as a separate subpackage.

Another comment is venerable "rpm -Uvh". RHEL6 introduces "yum history" which is a very handy way of knowing what was installed when... and reverting it as needed... but it needs yum command to be used. Could you please replace those rpm commands with "yum localinstall --nogpgcheck" (you'll need the latter option for your instructions, unless you want to add steps to produce signed rpms).

This won't make Red Hat support Xen in RHEL6, of course :) But these are "good things to do".

Hello,

Some people here might be interested in running Xen 4.0 hypervisor
(host/dom0) on Redhat Enterprise Linux 6.

Here's a howto that shows how it can be done:

This method is unsupported by Redhat, but it's still possible :)
