hi all, I have a xen-unstable installation, dom0 works fine. according to that guest file, content below, I like to have HVM (fully virtualized) guests. with my windows cdrom I install windows 7 with success. the problem I see is, that the network card and the ide controller are not virtual simulated by qemu! My guest domU got that hardware from my HP DL320G5 server!. I would like to be flexible to move my guest to any hardware box without taking care of changing network card and ide drivers within the guests. do I do something wrong here? thanks a lot for help! walter. guest config file ***************** *** name = ''server02'' kernel = ''hvmloader'' builder = ''hvm'' device_model = ''qemu-dm'' maxmem = 1024 memory = 1024 vcpus = 1 acpi = 1 apic = 1 vif = [ ''bridge=eth0'' ] disk = [ ''phy:/dev/vgmain/lv_server02,hda,w'',''file:/var/xen/win7.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'' ] boot = ''cd'' usbdevice = ''tablet'' sdl = 0 stdvga = 1 serial = ''pty'' on_poweroff = ''destroy'' on_reboot = ''restart'' on_crash = ''restart'' vnc = 1 vnclisten = ''0.0.0.0'' vncviewer = 1 ne2000 = 1 *** _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

hi fajar, hi xen group, sorry for asking that stupid question, I certainly passed that link 10 times and just didn''t see the part with the emulated drivers :-( I still have problem with debian install, but succeeded with win7 x64. I posted today new entry to the list. many thanks, walter -----Original Message----- From: xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com [mailto:xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com] On Behalf Of Fajar A.
