So I discovered yesterday when I deployed FC8 running xen with two  
rhel5.1 vm's.
I have no problem rebooting though, which is why I was thinking of  
something which would also work as a workstation.

They don't -- at least not in RHEL, but they are working on it.
Why xen? Well, for my RHCE re-certification, I assume they have it in  
the exam.

Also, it could be a part of some of the RHCA exams, which I am working  
on.
