Hi folks,
i have a problem to boot an Ubuntu CD in a hvm-enabled machine. I
get a black screen when connecting via vnc to the virtual machine.
When i change the line cdrom= to some other CD (grml Live CD,
Windows CD, other ones) it runs fine. But any Ubuntu CD (kubuntu
alternative, ubuntu server, ubuntu desktop) i get the mentioned
error.
I tried using sdl (no window opens) and with vncviewer=1 too (get a
black screen inside the vncviewer window).
Here is my config, do you have any idea?

# Configure the behaviour when a domain exits. There are three 'reasons'
# for a domain to stop: poweroff, reboot, and crash. For each of these you
# may specify:
#
# "destroy", meaning that the domain is cleaned up as normal;
# "restart", meaning that a new domain is started in place of the
old
# one;
# "preserve", meaning that no clean-up is done until the domain is
# manually destroyed (using xm destroy, for example); or
# "rename-restart", meaning that the old domain is not cleaned up, but is
# renamed and a new domain started in its place.
#
# The default is
#
# on_poweroff = 'destroy'
# on_reboot = 'restart'
# on_crash = 'restart'
#
# For backwards compatibility we also support the deprecated option restart
#
# restart = 'onreboot' means on_poweroff = 'destroy'
