looking for help on the web, I found a message saying that the disk
image should have 755 mode; after chmod the image the OSError problem
fixed, but ...

Now, I've added acpi=1 and apic=1 to winxp.cfg and the install process
started ok. After first mandatory winxp installer reboot, and when the
installer should start from hd  (not from cdrom) the windows blanks
and never return. xm dmesg shows the following

If I change acpi=1 to acpi=0 in config file, the last 5 lines of dmesg
disappear, but the problem continues.

Any help would be appreciated to fix this problem,

regards,
