Is there a <config-file>.hvm statement in [ FC7_64 + Xen 3.1 + full virt ] that will map a <floppy-disk-image>.img file to a guest domain as the floppy disk?
 
I've tried adding the following declaration to the <disk> keyword:
 
         'file:/var/lib/xen/images/my-image-name.img,ioemu:fd0,w'

While the <xm create> command did not complain about the declaration, neither a guest FC7 nor Windows did show the floppy disk in its system tray.
Is there a way of doing it?
 
Thanks,
