Ubuntu 7.04 64bit, Xen and HVM capable hardware

Hi folks,

my situation is as follows:

- Intel Xeon Server, EMT64 (hence VT enabled)
- Ubuntu 7.04 86bit Server edition

I want to use Xen for virtual Machines, with HVM support.

Well, the first installation attempts were disastrous. :-/

I tried to follow
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XenVirtualMachine/XenOnUbuntuFeisty
 but this obviously does not cover HVM setups. Also, there is no
"ubuntu-xen-server" package, only the desktop edition for AMD64. (I checked
that the universe repository us enabled, or is there a special
universe-server repository?)

I tried to find a decent HVM .config file, but no avail; they seem not to
be installed along when installing Xen on Ubuntu?

Anyway, I'd like to know the following:
- Which Xen packages do I need to install?
- Where do I find a complete HVM .config template?
- How do I setup VNC in the VM so that I can use TightVNC from my Laptop?

Cheers, and thanks,
Michel
