Installing XenServer

First you need to decide what XenServer you will install:

Citrix XenServer: a commercial product and the only enterprise-class, cloud-proven virtualization platform that delivers the critical features of live migration and centralized multi-server management at no cost
XCP: the open source version

To help install Citrix XenServer, take a look at the official install docs:

Put the CD in your server, and follow the on screen instruction.

You can download XCP here:

Notes:

Install steps are almost identical to XenServer
If you want a feature set similar to XenServer 6.0, then take a look at XCP 1.5 beta
If you want a more stable system, try XCP 1.1
