Velten,

You have an = (equal) sign where it should be a : (colon) under your disk line.  Try one of the following lines instead:

disk = [ "file:/HDD250/WIN.img,hda,w", "file:/HDD250/BX2EFPP_DE.ISO,hdc:cdrom,r" ]

or

disk = [ "tap:aio:/HDD250/WIN.img,hda,w", "file:/HDD250/BX2EFPP_DE.ISO,hdc:cdrom,r" ]

Cheers,
Daniel

Hi,

i have a fresh installed XEN 3.2-1 on an AMD BE2400 on Debian AMD64.
Now I tried to install a Windows 2003 Enterprise Server.

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen-3.2-1/boot/hvmloader"
builder = 'hvm'
memory = 512
name = "WinXP"
device_model = "/usr/lib64/xen-3.2-1/bin/qemu-dm"
boot = 'cd'



vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ]
disk = [
'file=/HDD250/WIN.img,ioemu:hdb,w','file:/HDD250/BX2EFPP_DE.ISO,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r'
 ]
vnc = 1
vnclisten = '0.0.0.0'
usb = 1
usbdevice = 'tablet'
stdvga = 0
serial = 'pty'
audio = 0

It works, but the Windows installer didn't find a Hard Disk and so it
can't install...
