[Fedora-xen] Running Xen on low spec single CPU

I know a lot of people just see Xen as a method to use over spec'd boxes 
more efficiently, but im interested in using its virtulisation 
capabilities on low  spec systems.
Has any one had any luck with getting a DomU running on a single CPU.

I seem to get stuck during the install, as far as i can see it seems 
that the DomU is not being allocated CPU time.

Using Fedora 6, i can get through the anaconda stage in about 1/2 hr but 
when the X window starts the CPU use drops to near 0% and i never get 
past a black screen with the X cursor.
