Ok.
So go for a SL 4.7 installation, unless you really need the 4.3 one.

Good luck.

P.S. It is from experience (and talknig with some sysadmins) that you are better off putting a dom0 with a SL OS. Go for a centOS, fedora or RHEL based one, and then build your SL machines on top.

Hi Tim

I have a dom0 server running SL 5.1 (i386), and I was able to install a
SL 4.7 (i386) domU.
When you say virt-install command/libvirt do not allow, what are the
errors you are getting?

Cheers,

I've looked into the virt-install command in more detail now. The
problem is that the SL4.3 installation tree has no images/xen/
directory, whereas more recent RHEL/SL 4.x (eg. 4.6, 4.7) do. The
virt-install expects to retrieve a vmlinuz and initrd.img from there.
(The error is "Invalid file location given: No such file or directory")
