So in order to run rhel6 under xen, ensure that you modify the partition layout during the installation process.

This turned out to be a real head scratcher for me, and initially I thought the problem was something else as Xen wasn’t being very helpful with error messages.

Hopefully there’ll be an update for this soon!
