Package python-virtinst may be safely installed on Xen 3.2.1 F8 Dom0. Minor tuning of /usr/bin/pygrub and xend-config.sxp makes possible creating Linux DomUs with virt-install utilizing loop mounted ISO images

# mkdir -p /mnt01/tmp
# mount -o loop,ro CentOS51.iso /mnt01/tmp
and /mnt01/tmp as NFS shares for parameter
--location nfs:IP-ADDRESS-Dom0:/mnt01/tmp
in virt-install command line or interactively
Install Xen 3.2.1 from source on F8 instance ( xen disabled ) and run:-
# yum install python-virtinst
