BTW, I've written a simple script to do this, it lets you fill out a
configuration template, creates the LVM root volume for the new
domain, debootstraps into it, fixes up those config files and finally
writes a xen config file. Plus I've done a init script that looks for
*.xm in /etc/xen and starts/stops all those as domains.

What's the general feeling about such stuff? Should this go into the
distribution or in the Wiki?
