I got Win XP Pro 32 bit running as an HVM under SuSE 10.1. I didn't do much 
with it but it was up and running. In the process I learnt more than I 
really wanted to know about disk layouts, file systems and boot procedures. 
These all seem to be prerequisites for getting Xen to work. An 
unwillingness to dirty the mind with such details seems to be a recipe for 
failure.
