Is CD-ROM/DVD-ROM the only way to install XCP?
Not the only. I use PXE boot to run the installation process.

Can provide my "private" documented procedure, but it's very contextual and surely very confusing for anyone else.

I used this reference:

(maybe not too relevant for you, I installed XCP *on* a USB drive, not *from* USB drive)
