I am not at all a specialist of Xen, simply the following works for
me:

-------------------------------------
cat /etc/xen/vm/w2k8-fr
name="w2k8r2-fr"
uuid="4071ea78-a1cf-ad7d-b78c-82f45bbded75"
memory=1024
maxmem=1024
vcpus=1
on_poweroff="destroy"
on_reboot="restart"
on_crash="destroy"
localtime=1

builder="hvm"
extid=1
device_model="/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
kernel="/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot="c"
disk=[ 'phy:/dev/vmxen/w2k8r2-fr,hda,w', 
'file:/root/w2k8r2-fr.iso,hdc:cdrom,r', ]
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:22:96:f8,bridge=br0,model=rtl8139', ]


stdvga=0
vnc=1
vncunused=1
apic=1
acpi=1
pae=1

usb=1
usbdevice='tablet'

serial="pty"
-----------------------------------

Disk is on a logical volume (vmxen) and distribution is opensuse 11.1
64 bits.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Sylvain
