Yes, you'll need to copy xen.gz and vmlinuz-2.4.26-xen0 on to your /boot partition and add a new grub config entry. (See REAME.CD) > Will this partition then be the "host" for all > the guest OSes?

Its possible that some installations might rely on things like 'devfs' that aren't compiled into the default build of Linux-xen, but you could enable these in the normal way (or just edit you /etc/fstab).
