      Struggling to find a full and complete example of how to do this, and everything I've tried that has worked before and via docs I've found just isn't working.

      I'm probably missing something fairly obvious for those who have done it before.

      Tried via XCP-ng Centre (8.2, with all patches applied) - Seems to be some weird bug in there from what I've seen on the forums with the guest-tools.iso mount not working.

      Tried via XOA with guest-tools.iso mount, and then via console to run commands - Which didn't work

      Tried via XO from Sources with guest-tools.iso mount, and then via console to run commands - Which didn't work.

      Followed guidelines from here https://docs.xcp-ng.org/vms/#linux-guest-tools

      But it's not complete documentation, I think the missing bit of info is "enable the appropriate repository" which if documented, then it should mean that things can be installed via Yum with

      yum install xe-guest-utilities-latest
      

      But unsure the steps to take to configure something this ambiguous.

      I'm also a bit confused why the guest-tools.iso isn't working like before. I can only assume that it's because Rocky Linux 10 is newer than XCP-ng Server 8.2, so it's probably an alignment issue.

      What am I missing to get this working?
