Xen users - Feb 2007 - DomU does not start, problem with qemu / disk files?

Hello,

I am trying to install windows 2003 on a HP DL360G5 server with VT 
processors,
Xen 3.0.4 boots and runs fine, paravirtualized guests also work.

Now I am trying to boot a windows installer, the guest starts, but I am 
not able to connect to the vnc-server, and qemu errors

 cat qemu-dm.13119.log
domid: 12
qemu: the number of cpus is 1
qemu_map_cache_init nr_buckets = 200
shared page at pfn:1ffff
buffered io page at pfn:1fffd
char device redirected to /dev/pts/1
I/O request not ready: 0, ptr: 0, port: 0, data: 0, count: 0, size: 0


I am not sure what file or disk is not ready here,

my confg:
(short)

import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search(''64'', arch):
    arch_libdir = ''lib64''
else:
    arch_libdir = ''lib''

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder=''hvm''
memory = 512
shadow_memory = 8
name = "winxp"
vif = [ ''type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0'' ]
disk = [ ''file:/mnt/win.img,hda,w'' ,
''file:/root/windows_2003.iso,hdb,r'' ]
device_model = ''/usr/lib64/xen/bin/qemu-dm''
boot="d"
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncpasswd=''admin''
stdvga=0
serial=''pty''
usb=1
usbdevice=''tablet''


I have already tried to use a cdrom entry instead of a hdb file device 
for the cdrom driver, this gives the same result,


Beste regards,

Joop Marijne

try hdb:cdrom instead.

Now I have

disk = [ ''file:/mnt/win.img,hda,w'' , 
''file:/root/windows_2003.iso,hdb:cdrom,r'' ]

the qemu logs stays the same

raco:/var/log/xen# tail -f qemu-dm.25041.log
domid: 16
qemu: the number of cpus is 1
qemu_map_cache_init nr_buckets = 200
shared page at pfn:1ffff
buffered io page at pfn:1fffd
char device redirected to /dev/pts/1
I/O request not ready: 0, ptr: 0, port: 0, data: 0, count: 0, size: 0


The iso image is really there:

file /root/windows_2003.iso
/root/windows_2003.iso: ISO 9660 CD-ROM filesystem data 
''NRMEAIO_EN                     '' (bootable)

Is there a way to increase qemu''s verbosity?
