[one-users] Xen images with pygrub

[Ruben S. Montero]

Hi,
	This feature has been implemented, changes are in the trunk. You can safely 
apply the patch from the changeset (http://trac.opennebula.org/changeset/295) 
to the beta1 source tree. If you give it a try let us know if it worked for 
you. We've also updated the documentation, take a look at:

Cheers

Ruben
