fromw hat I can tell, they are just creating a temp yum repo conf file 
to specify what repos to install from and calling it |yum-xen.conf for 
some reason.   they then use that .conf file with yum like...    |

        ||*|yum -c /|<yum_configuration_file>|/ 
--installroot=/|<image_mountpoint>|/ -y groupinstall Base

and install the 'base' group to the loopback mount, which populates the file 
system image.
