Fair enough, I know how to copy files from one computer to the other. Which files do I need to copy though? If I copy the config file from /etc/xen, and the disk image file, is that enough? Do I need /var/lib/xen/boot_kernel.XXXXX and /var/lib/xen/boot_ramdisk.XXXXX. If I copy these three into place, is that it?
