RE: [Xen-devel] Re: [Xen-ia64-devel] VTI Windows installation andbooting HowTo
Hi Alex, Using Flash.fd.2006.12.01 and Cset#12796 (with the accel_ide_pio patch from FJ), I have done the VTI_Win2k3server installation within an hour. ( Please make sure that serial=''pty'' has been commented in your VTI config file.) I did not meet the problem you said.
