Please check the zen's manual first. It should surely answer you.

See *en.opensuse.org/How_to_add_a_Xen_VM_Guest

^^I did go through it before posting that. But whenever I proceed, it says that it cannot find boot files on the specified location (the iso).

did you follow *en.opensuse.org/How_to_Install_a_VM's_OS_from_ISO
And maybe more info about the location of the iso and steps you took will be helpful.

^^ Tried it.... it says that it cannot recover a kernel from the source.

Did you see the xen setup section? I think we have to use xen kernel, are you using that?
I missed the demo on xen by anurag in the last LUG meet or else would have known a bit.

^^ Yes I did. Otherwise you cannot start that VM adding setup.

And it's great that you have LUGs there.... I am stuck here, as I am the only one among all my friends and all people that I know here in Sangli who uses linux.
