Hello 

Apologies if this is a double post, I tried to send this with nabble and it just keeps telling me that the post hasn't gone through...  So I subscribed and am resending directly.

I have what I think should be a pretty standard configuration here, but can't seem to get my windows domu running. 

uname -r shows 2.6.24-23-xen 

I installed with apt--get install ubuntu-xen-server 

I moved /lib/tls to /lib/tls.disabled  because of a message that was coming up at boot, and disabled apic with grub. 

My windows domain is in /var/lib/xend/domains/winxp 

The disk image is /var/lib/xend/domains/winxp/disk.img (I made is with dd if=/dev/zero of=disk.img bs=1M count=20000) 

The config is /var/lib/xend/domains/winxp/winxp.cfg 

I disabled the -nolisten option in the login security, so I can display to my X session as root. 
  
When I start my domain with xm create winxp.cfg , it says the domain is started: 
Using config file "./winxp.cfg". 
Started domain winxp 

However, I cannot access the machine in any way.  Maybe I'm missing something obvious. 

xm start winxp  tells me that there is no domain called winxp 

There is no vnc server on localhost as far as I can tell. 

Here's my configs, maybe someone can point me in a good direction.

winxp.cfg: 
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader" 
builder = 'hvm' 
memory = '512' 
name = "winxp" 
vcpus = 2 
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ] 
disk = ['tap:aio:/var/lib/xend/domains/winxp/disk.img,xvda1,w'] 
device_model = '/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm' 
cdrom='/dev/hdc'
