  True.

  That sounds strange.  I tested it with this:

   xen-create-image --hostname=megan.my.flat --ip=192.168.1.223
   --dist=sarge --boot --force --template /etc/xen-tools/foo.tmpl
   --verbose

  It correctly used the foo.tmpl file which I'd specified.

  I'm not sure that is a good idea to be honest.  xm is a different
 tool, and all the other options such as specifying a kernel require
 an absolute path.

  Agreed.  The code will be updated to ensure a valid template is given
 or a fatal error.

  Yes.
