So far as I know the Live media are just for trying it before actually trying to install it.  I do not believe that the Live Media are installable.  If the CentOS one is based on 4.4, it is quite outdated since CentOS is at 4.8 now.  Since 4.4 is so dated, it is likely it isn't compatible with the hardware you are trying it out on... and not really an OpenVZ specific issue.

So you said you have had "futile attemps" to get OpenVZ installed.  What are you trying to install it on?

TYL,
