Dror,

From looking at your
#xm dmesg

its clear that your domU guest never starts! You have some lines in your config that are stopping it from starting.

To start worrying about connecting with VNC is premature -- get back to basics of Xen and get the guest to launch first.

cheers,
Mark

how do i connect to the windows domain using vnc?
 
the vncserver is running and i can connect to dom0 (vncviewer ip:1). however i don't know how to connect to the guest domain i've just created. i've tried vncviewer ip:domid but i get an error (Unable to connect to VNC server)
 
Thanks, Dror

Well, you use the VNC/SDL window. As far as I know, you can't install
Windows without a graphics card and a monitor connected to it either, so
that's the same sort of case.

No /var/log/xen/qemu*.log at all? That's bad [or they are somewhere
else!] I usually have hundreds (or thousands - I cleaned out 4000+ this
morning!) of them.

No, neither do I.
