Hi,
please can you help me.
I've just installed xen 3.1.1 (gentoo ebuild with hvm use flag) on AMD
opteron server using amd64 edition and 2007.0 profile.
I can create and run paravirtual domU but it is imposible to create HVM
domU. When I run "xm create win2003" I get following report:

Can you roll back to 3.1.0? 3.1.1 isn't even published as a tarball yet:

I'm uncertain why people are automatically starting out with this

pre-release code, rather than starting with a more tested release and

then moving forward to the pre-release.

Using config file "/etc/xen/win2003".
