Hello,

In my experiences this is also dependent on the fact if you install 32bit
and 64bit server.

I have the w2k3 enterprise server x64 working with the config, where, as far
as I remember (have the config not here now), also the lines

acpi=1
apic=1

- this was some crucial problem to get started the installer from the "text"
into the "graphical" mode.

- use xen 3.0.4.1, with 3.0.3 I did not get it to work with 64bits. With 32
bits w2k3 server standard it worked also with xen 3.0.3.

        Good luck,  

                Archie

Hi Antoine,

I`ve had nearly the same setup working flawlessly.

You should remove the line:
cdrom='/root/WINDOWS_2003_ENTERPRISE.ISO'
which is deprecated - perhaps this confuses something.

Does loopback-mounting  the iso work?
Are there any error messages?
If not (or no recognizable ones) - if you write the dd-image back as
iso - does it still work?

best,
Dwe
