[xen-tools] problem with fedora

[Maurizio Marini]

my scenario
i have a debian sarge ad guest of xen beta 3.2;
i installed last xen tools and i created with no pain a debian guest; i tried 
then fedora with no success, i think taht a small note like that u wrote on 
gentoo http://lists.cvsrepository.org/xen-tools/Jun06/0017.html
would be very apreciated.

here in detail step by step what i have done:
cp /etc/xen/xen-tools.conf /etc/xen/xen-tools-fedora.org

modified /etc/xen/xen-tools-fedora.org with infos regarding fedora
then:

xen-create-image \
	--hostname=fedora \
	--rpmstrap  \
	--dist=stentz \
	--config-file=/etc/xen-tools/xen-tools-fedora.conf \
	--dir=/home/xen \
	--force    

less /var/log/xen-tools/fedora.log
