======How to install lxadmin on Fiber Hosting Xen VPS======
This document will let you know how to install lxadmin on a Fiber Hosting VPS. There are a few modifications we need to make for this to work correctly.

====Correcting repo's====
We need to correct the CentOS repo's to only download i386 files
 cd /etc/yum.repos.d/

 mv CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Base.repo.old

 nano CentOS-Base.repo

Paste the following lines into the CentOS-Base.repo ('''''Make sure window is full sized''''')
 # CentOS-Base.repo
 #
 # This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for CentOS.
 # The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
 # update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
 # geographically close to the client.  You should use this for CentOS updates
 # unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
 #
 # If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the
 # remarked out baseurl= line instead.

=====Getting the system ready=====
We need to install some development tools for the VPS
 yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"

===Installing Lxadmin===
We need to download the lxadmin file and run the installer

 cd ~
 wget http://download.lxlabs.com/download/lxadmin/production/lxadmin-install-master.sh
 sh lxadmin-install-master.sh

This will error out saying "Lxadmin does not support 64 bit at present" To correct this do the following:

 rm -f program-install.zip
 wget http://download.lxlabs.com/download/program-install.zip
 export PATH=/usr/sbin:/sbin:$PATH
 unzip -oq program-install.zip
 cd program-install/lxadmin-linux

After you have completed those steps you will need to do:

 nano /root/program-install/lxadmin-linux/lxins.php
 Press ctrl+w+t enter in line number 32
 Change if ($arch === 'x86_64') and add and extra 4 like if ($arch === 'x86_644')
 Then hit ctrl+x then type y for save

Then run the install by doing:

 cd ~/program-install/lxadmin-linux
 php lxins.php --install-type=master $* | tee lxadmin_install.log

Lxadmin should be installed correctly!
