The distribution you are running on your Dom0.

No, you also need to set e.g. "dist = lenny" or "dist = lucid".

You don't need to change the mirror setting if you're fine with the
mirror returned by "xt-guess-suite-and-mirror --mirror".

Otherwise you can either set "mirror =
http://your.prefered.mirror.example.org/" or a default mirror per
distribution with "mirror_lucid = http://ubuntu.mirror.example.org/"
and "mirror_lenny = http://debian.mirror.example.org/".

HTH.
