The CentOS 5.1 distribution comes with Xen 3.1 as an option. To install this, you need to select "Virtualization" during the installation stage or
@virtualization
in the kickstart file.
There is no pre-compiled Xen 3.2 for CentOS 5 x86_64 available yet, so download the source RPM from xen.org.
Install the source RPM
rpm -i xen-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.src.rpm
which will leave the sources and spec file in /usr/src/redhat. The RPMs can be build when the build requirements are satisfied. The following list of packages should do.
yum install curl-devel dev86 gettext ghostscript glibc-devel gnutls-devel gtk2-devel libaio-devel libidn-devel libX11-devel ncurses-devel openssl-devel perl python-devel SDL-devel tetex-latex texi2html transfig udev zlib-devel
