Oh my. It seems I (incorrectly) assume that you're moving win boxes
only. Sorry about that.

In general, Joseph's suggestion would work for Linux boxes. If you
need more specific instructions, some additional details of what
you're trying to do would be helpful :
- Are you going for PV guests or HVM guests?
I'd go for PV for performance reasons.
- Which distro do you use?
Different distros might require different strategies. For example,
some might provide kernel-xen package which can make converting to PV
easier, or PV drivers which can improve performance on HVM guests
- Are you familiar with creating xen domU config files by hand?

Fajar
