Is there any way to install proxmox web interface on centos 5.4 system, to manage existing pull of kvm vm's? Some kind of pve-manager.rpm or something like this?

Sorry, no way. Proxmox VE is a very integrated system not just a web interface.
(rpm based systems are quite different to Debian).

Is there any big problems to port proxmov to centos?
I want to try.

its just a matter of time, but if you are able to invest a bunch of developer man years, feel free to start. but to be honest, forget it.

if you do not like Proxmox VE (and Debian), there are other solution already available on rpm systems.

and whats the reason for this idea? I know that the philosophy of centos is just recompiling sources from others (and removing the copyrights) but this will not work as we are Debian based.

Can you recommend some? I know ovirt, but it does not satisfy us. Enomaly currently unavaible for download. What else?

The main idea - we need some web based soft for managing 30+ baremetal KVM CentOS-based host. And because of company policy we can't change CentOS to Debian.
 
Can you describe, what specific things you write/patch in promox, that prevent porting to rpm-based distro? Or we need simply some kind of dpkg2rpm job?
