           Summary: floppy drive is not accessed by new domain
           Product: Xen
           Version: unstable
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HVM
        AssignedTo: xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: n4fwd@xxxxxxxxx


Kudos to the xen developers for fixing the cdrom access problem. The floppy
drive is not accessed during creation of a new domain. I have tried various
syntaxes with attempting to specify where to read the floppy drive. All
attempts have failed. Is there any way to fix xen to use the same sort of
syntax which is used to specify the cdrom drive?
Host (dom0) Fedora Core 6 xen ready with xen 3.0.3
Guest (domU hvm) Windows ME (which needs a bootable floppy in order to boot and
                             install)
