Sounds good to me.  Our previous (CentOS 5) server was auto-migrated
from User Mode Linux to Xen with no problem, but it makes sense to do
this on our timetable.

The performance boost is nice but we're barely using any resources as it
is.

I'd say go ahead and do it once you're comfortable with it.  The
discussion on the Linode forum might identify any potential gotchas.

boot setups are the main issue.
