Setup Fedora 12 RC3 PV DomU at xVM 3.3.2 Dom0 OpenSolaris 1002-126

[ Thanks to Boris Derzhavets for this link. ]

"Virt-install rejects to install Fedora12 PV DomU which is not yet in the dictionary in meantime. XML startup file for f12 allows to avoid this restriction via command :

# virsh create f12-pv-install.xml

"I believe mentioned restriction is mostly connected with xVM version 3.3.2 unable to handle ext4 FS for boot partition of Linux DomU"
