Xen users - Nov 2008 - GPLPV driver installation for Windows 2000 server

Hi

Any tips how to install GPLPV drivers for Windows 2000 server? Did try but 
it left devices with no drivers, seems it did not find drivers eg. for 
network card, etc. 

Terveisin/Regards,

I build the drivers for windows 2000 but some effort will be required to
make them work, and it''s not a priority for me right now, although I
will happily accept patches :)

I think the problem is probably as simple as that I''m using some
functions or flags somewhere that are only supported under XP or newer,
so if you had the DDK and Windows 2000 and knew how to use a debugger it
shouldn''t be too hard to fix.

I successfully installed Windows 2000 with gplpv drivers. But when I boot
with gplpv option:

BSOD: Inacessible boot device. Even using the regfix from Microsoft
according to a previous email from James.

Still not using gplpv on win2k

Regards.
