I had zero trouble with Xen HVM and CentOS7 and ArchLinux.  Both
installed pretty much as you would expect according to the official
documented instructions provided by Cent and the Arch folks.

In fact, I installed FreeBSD, Dragonfly and Ubuntu in the same way
without any problem.  In an ironic twist, the only OS I tried that had
problems with HVM Xen was NetBSD 8ish..
