I'm running Xen 3.1.4 on CentOS 5 and am interested in switching the 
following disk to tap mode:

disk = [ 'file:/vm/dns.img,ioemu:hda,w' ]

However, everything I've tried fails (DomU won't boot).  Basically I'm 
trying to avoid Dom0 caching the reads and writes and get a little better 
performance.

What is the correct syntax to enable tap mode?

Thanks in advance.
