Hi Tom

What about the other files?

On the Xen downloads page, http://xen.org/download/dl_32rhel5.html I see 
the following:


	xen-3.2.0.i386.rpm (hypervisor and management tools) 
<http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.i386.rpm> 

  	xen-3.2.0-0.src.rpm (source) 
<http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.src.rpm> 

  	xen-debuginfo-3.2.0.i386.rpm (debugging information) 
<http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-debuginfo-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.i386.rpm> 

  	xen-devel-3.2.0.i386.rpm (development library) 
<http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-devel-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.i386.rpm> 

  	xen-libs-3.2.0.i386.rpm (support libraries) 
<http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-libs-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.i386.rpm> 




I don't think I can install the i386 rpms on a CentOS 5.1 x64 system, 
right? Did you have problems with these files? Do I need them? What 
about the xen-3.2.0.i386.rpm (hypervisor and management tools) 
<http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.i386.rpm>
& xen-libs-3.2.0.i386.rpm (support libraries) 
<http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/3.2.0/centos-5.1/xen-libs-3.2.0-0xs.centos5.i386.rpm>?
