Does anyone have good instructions on how to make Ubuntu 11 work well on XenServer? I have two servers setup and would like to make sure that I get them working as well as I can on XenServer. I am pretty new to running the linux servers but have been running windows servers on XenServer for a couple years now. So the simpler the instructions the better.

There are two ways to do this. My favorite way is to just grab the image from here, and do a File->Import from XenServer:

After you do this, you may want to upgrade ubuntu to the latest version with a do-release-upgrade, you can do that following the instructions here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/upgrade

. .

If you would like to take the "long route" and install it yourself, here are some instructions for doing that:
