Hi
  Trying to get WinXP HVM  to install as domU on AMD. Got latest Xen Kernel and Xen package (NOT unstable or debug).

When start, a window pops up  for few seconds.. then it dies and another one comes up... and it disappears too. (Xen is trying to restart and giving up because the restart happens in 2 seconds..) It seems DomU is not able to read/understand something from Cirrus VGABIOS. 

   Any ideas on getting this to work ? Do I need to change some bios setting ?
   Please see details below.
Thanks
/Jd
