Hi,
I bootstrapped fedora with yum, and everything seems to work fine.

I have only one problem: the installed fedora system always wants to
make a filesystem check for the root file system on /dev/xvda1, on
every start and reboot.
Make sure that your Xen configuration uses the "ro" kernel option: I just ran into this while throwing debris out of a Xen configuration. (selinux=0 and hard-coding the runlevel is foolish, they should be controlled by the installed guest operating system configuration itself.)

The system boots and runs fine with no other errors in any log, no
matter if I answer y or n on the fsck question at bootup.

Seems like it could be solved by looking at fedora init scripts line
by line, but this could take some while -  maybe I am not the only one
who had that problem.

Are there better ways to install Fedora on Suse than using yum?
Rpmstrap sounded nice for a while, but seems completely outdated and
not further developed anymore.
Anaconda is really heavy, I want something simpole tazt installs into
a directory, but i could try to boot it and let anaconda do the
install just as on fedora dom0 if nothing else works.
Tarball of a built system, such as those at www.jailtime.org, works well for me.
