I see, okay.  

So, I figure that I must do the OS install first as a fully virtualized guest, 
and then "convert" it into a xen kernel afterwards, and then tell the dom0 to 
then change the domU from fully virtualized into paravirutalized; as the 
install program does not have ethtool nor an option to drop into a terminal 
with ethtool (fedora net install).  

I created a fully virtualized VM for the install; and everything regarding the 
network (and performance) is great.  However, right when it tries to access the 
virtual disk I created, it will hang there and not move.  (It's trying to 
format it to create the FS, which usually takes like 5-10 seconds).  I've let 
it sit there for 30 minutes already.  I've tried creating the disk using 
phy/zvol, as well as the default vmdk flat file.  Neither of them seem to allow 
the VM to access it without hanging it.  

Any ideas for this new problem?

Thanks,
stephen
