-Quick-Start Guide - Pre-Built Binary Release
-============================================
-
-[NB. Unless noted otherwise, all the following steps should be
-performed with root privileges.]
-
-1. Install the binary distribution onto your filesystem:
-
-    # sh ./install.sh
-
-   Among other things, this will install Xen and Xen-ready Linux
-   kernel files in /boot, kernel modules and Python packages in /lib,
-   and various control tools in standard 'bin' directories.
-
-2. Configure your bootloader to boot Xen and an initial Linux virtual
-   machine. Note that Xen currently only works with GRUB and pxelinux
-   derived boot loaders: less common alternatives such as LILO are
-   *not* supported. You can most likely find your GRUB menu file at
-   /boot/grub/menu.lst: edit this file to include an entry like the
-   following:
-
-    title Xen 3.4 / XenLinux 2.6
-       kernel /boot/xen-3.4.gz console=vga
-       module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen root=<root-dev> ro console=tty0
-       module /boot/initrd-2.6-xen.img
-
-   NB: Not all kernel configs need an initial ram disk (initrd), but
-   if you do specify one you'll need to use the 'module' grub directive
-   rather than 'initrd'.
-
-   The linux command line takes all the usual options, such as
-   root=<root-dev> to specify your usual root partition (e.g.,
-   /dev/hda1).
-
-   The Xen command line takes a number of optional arguments described
-   in the manual. The most common is 'dom0_mem=xxxM' which sets the
-   amount of memory to allocate for use by your initial virtual
-   machine (known as domain 0). Note that Xen itself reserves about
-   32MB memory for internal use, which is not available for allocation
-   to virtual machines.
-
-3. Reboot your system and select the "Xen 3.4 / XenLinux 2.6" menu
-   option. After booting Xen, Linux will start and your initialisation
-   scripts should execute in the usual way.
