This is the one I have been using but whenever I do a xm create my system
reboots. Would the driver for the video have anything to do with that, I am
using vesa? I was hoping I could install windows without a xserver installed,
can this be done?

I would still like to see someones config file that works with LVMs and and .iso
for the cdrom or at least tell me where mine is wrong.

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 512
name = "winxp"
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ]
################################################
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/xennet/winxp,ioemu:sda,w',
'file:/media/sda2/usr/local/src/WinXP/winxp_sp2.iso,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
### Line wrap but the above is one statement ####
device_model = "/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
boot = "d"
sdl=1
ne2000=0
apic=1
pae=1


Thanks again for any help,

Jon
