Is it a FC6 guest you're installing, or something else ?
Yes.
The hardware is a Dell poweredge (I believe an 850), with a single P4, 4GB of ram and SATA disks.
The dom0 is a i386 image install of FC6 with all updates.
Are you sure ? Because there is no xenguest-install.py in FC6. It got renamed first to xenguest-install, and then to virt-install just before release. FC5 should be the only place where xenguest-install.py is still distributed. What 'xen' RPM version have you got ?
Uhm yeah. long live tab completion. I didnt even notice. The commandline used was:
xenguest-install -n ftp.xtdnet.nl -f /children/ftp.xtdnet.nl/ftp.xtdnet.nl.img --nographics -p -l ftp://dl.xs4all.nl/pub/mirror/fedora/core/6/i386/os/ -x "noacpi noapic" -r 1024
(the noapic noacpi was a test in the hope tht it would fix my issue).
Also, I can still do xm shutdown and then I see the system halting.
