Xen users - Apr 2011 - Win7 domU doesn''t start if vif is set

Hello,

my problem is, that I cannot start a windows7 domU on xen4 running with 
debian squeeze. If I leave out the vif config parameter (just commented 
it out) everything works fine and I can connect through it via VNC. But 
without networking.

I already spent some hours of googleing, nut didnt find a solution. 
Maybe I used the wrong terms.

What can I try else to get it running?

Following:
xm create /etc/xen/domains/windoof2.sxp
Using config file "/etc/xen/domains/windoof2.sxp".
Error: Domain ''win7prof'' does not exist.

The detailed error is:

[2011-04-30 19:08:57 1624] WARNING (image:552) domain win7prof: device 
model failure: pid 23718: malfunctioning (closed sentinel), killed; see 
/var/log/xen/qemu-dm-win7prof.log <-- (log file empty)

My Linux:

Linux apollo 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 8 00:01:30 UTC 2011 
x86_64 GNU/Linux


My xen-config:


kernel = ''/usr/lib/xen-4.0/boot/hvmloader''
builder = ''hvm''
memory = ''512''
device_model=''/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm''
shadow_memory = 8
