Are RPMs available, or could they be created for those of that run Virtuozzo for Linux by Parallels, as well as other virtualization software? I generally run one-two virtual servers on an Intel quad core XEON for unparalleled performance and have the security of daily backups and the ability to "bounce" a "container" from a failing "hardware node" to another "hardware node." I use CentOS on all of my over 100 machines. All of my motherboards have at least one serial port as do most server boards in production. OpenVZ is the free version of Virtuozzo and serves as the test bed for it. The ability to backup and restore anywhere, as well as to bounce or migrate anywhere have saved my butt many times.
Couldn't you just install from CD into a VM? or even mount -o loop disk1.iso /mnt/point/ There are claims all over this list that acid/allstar/asterisk works fine in a VM.
