Hi,

I am trying to set up a Xen based virtual server. I have rebooted the machine 
into the xen kernel and set everything up, I am at the point (or rather have 
been for the last few days) at setting up a DomU. I have created the config 
file (attached below) yet when I start the DomU up I can't see any disk drives, 
CD drives or get a network connection, there is no dhcp server in this setup.


---- Start Config File  ------


kernel = "/media/CentOS/vmlinuz-xen-kernel"
ramdisk = "/media/CentOS/initrd-xen-install.img"
#extra = "text"
extra = "text ks=http://131.251.200.2/kickstart.cfg";
builder='linux'
memory = "2048"
name = "delta"
cpus = ""         # leave to Xen to pick
vcpus = "2"
vif= ['bridge=xenbr0',]

ip="85.159.63.150"
netmask="255.255.255.192"
gateway="85.159.63.131"
dhcp="off"

disk = ['file:/media/CentOS/CentOS-5.2-x86_64-bin-DVD.iso,hdc:cdrom,r']
disk = ['phy:/dev/xen/deltasda,xvda,w','phy:/dev/xen/deltasdb,xvdb,w']
root = "/dev/xvda"
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'


---- End Config File  ------

 I downloaded the kernel and initrd file from CentOS for the DomU at:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/x86_64/images/xen/

I am having to do this by the command line and the bootup for the machine is:

Bootdata ok (command line is
