leave "xen" out of your search terms, people have been virtualising
Linux since about SLES8 (o was that SLES7) and RHAS2.1.[1]

Some of it will need careful reading and translation and careful
evaluation, what applies on one hardware platform might not apply on
others. Some folk run up to a thousand virtual Linux systems on one box,
but you probably won't.

[1] I wasn't thinking of vmware, experience with vmware should translate
fairly well.
