Xen Installation Problems

Well, not everything is as simple as I would like them to be. I've already tried installing Xen on the latest version of Ubuntu with little to no success. It looks like there is a kernel error that prevents networking from working somehow - I can get everything up and running, but once in 'xend' I no longer have any network/internet access.

Next I'm trying OpenSolaris. It's not working so far, for some reason the make command keeps returning something about a bad macro or something like that. I'll be working on this tonight to try to get it working.

If that doesn't work, I'll try to add a more simple operating system as dom0. Sometghing small and light that should theoretically just work.
