Cloning XEN virtual machines
Not many people know that Novell actually now maintains a script to make XEN virtual machine cloning easy. It's located in /etc/xen/scripts/xmclone.sh and part of the xen-tools package.
geeko:~ # rpm -qf /etc/xen/scripts/xmclone.sh
xen-tools-3.2.0_16718_16-0.3
Try it out, I'm sure you will never waste your time with installing XEN virtual machines anymore.
The original script and the usage was also published here:

It was contributed by a community member and is published "as is." It seems to have worked for at least one person, and might work for you. But please be sure to test, test, test before you do anything drastic with it.
