Does anyone have any idea where I can locate a 'GOOD' how-to document on
implementing Xen and/or KVM on a Fedora-12 system?  I'm currently running
VMware Server 2.0, but I would like to make the move to the open source
virtualization - if possible.  What I found is somewhat short on the
networking piece.  It doesn't matter if it's TUI or GUI.

For xen networking you could look at http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XenNetworking . The quick guide to xen on Fedora is
1) yum install xen xen-hypervisor xen-libs xen-runtime
2) install a xen dom0 kernel eg. from http://myoung.fedorapeople.org/dom0/
3) Create an entry in the /boot/grub/grub.conf along the lines of
title xen
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /xen.gz
	module /vmlinuz-2.6.32.14-1.2.107.xendom0.fc12.x86_64 ro root=UUID=...
	module /initramfs-2.6.32.14-1.2.107.xendom0.fc12.x86_64.img

however xen isn't fully supported in Fedora at the moment so you may find KVM easier.
