No. Do not do that. Xen is another thing. Try installing only the kernel
manually.

*Xen* is a virtualization technology available for the Linux™ *kernel* that
lets you enclose and test new upgrades as if running them in the existing
environment but without the worries of disturbing the original system. The
author shows you how to install *Xen* using Fedora Core, but once installed,
everything works the same in *Xen* on any distribution. Take a look at
virtualization on Linux and see the benefits of having a sandbox for testing
new software, as well as a playground for running multiple virtual machines
on the same Linux box.
