Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Already done.  I was running 2.6.15-1.1955_FC5hypervisor on the host,
and 2.6.15-1.1955_FC5guest for the guest.

BTW, it would be helpful if the Requires for the Xen guest kernels
were trimmed a bit so the newer kernels could be installed on older
(FC4, for example) guests.  Rather than install the kernel-xen-guest
rpm, I just used --with=xennet when I created the initrd so the guest
would have networking.  I can't think of any other modules not already
loaded in the initrd that would be absolutely required for the guest.
