Hi Mike:
Setting "other-config:install-methods=cdrom,http" didn't seem to work.
It may be that I didn't do it correctly so ran "xe vm-param-list
uuid=$uuid" to verify. The output is shown below. Apparently I am still
missing something. Do you have any ideas that might help.

It's probably the documentation's fault, not yours ;)

RHEL 6 x86_64 may also work, but 'Other install media' is often your
best bet.

At this point, you'll also need to update other-config:install-methods
to include http. Otherwise, it will just try to boot from the cdrom,
which is empty.

If you've got an ISO image on your local network, you can also just boot
from that. You can export the directory containing the ISO as an NFS
share, and then use `xe-mount-iso-sr host:/ISO-directory`. Once you have
the ISO directory mounted as an SR, you can then add the Fedora ISO to
the VM as a CD:
# xe vm-cd-add vm=test device=3
cd-name='Fedora-14-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso'
While it would work, I wouldn't recommend putting the ISO directly in
dom0, because we only give that filesystem 4GiB to use, and it'll ruin
your day if you run out of space on dom0.
