Morten,

could you please describe your configuration in some more detail
(Distro; kernel & xen builds; config file)? 

I consistently fail to complete the WinXP installation (blank screen
in the HVM session at the first boot from virtual hard disk, just after 
first-stage install). On the other hand, Windows 2000 works fine as
HVM guest.

For my config, please see my post in Ben''s thread.

Thanks, Klaus

Hello

another HVM success story :)


MB:    INTEL DG965SSCK Shrewsbury, iG965, integrated VGA, AHCI SATA
CPU:  Intel Core 2 Duo e6600 , 2,4GHz, 4MB Cache
RAM:  2x1GB DDRII-667
HDD:  2x250GB WD SATA-II 16MB cache

dom0:   Gentoo - tried both x86 and x86_64 versions
xen:      3.0.3
hvm:     Windows XP SP2 x86, Windows 2003 Server x86

using the server headless, I have installed all the windows guest
systems via VNC and then switched to remote desktop - RDP which is far
better than VNC or SDL.

Under xen with 2.6.16.29 kernel you have to use driver module compiled
from intel sources to get integrated gigabit network card working
(e1000).

BR

Peter
