Hi xen users,

Recently, I am trying to install windows xp using hvm with the below config file:

kernel = '/usr/lib/xen-3.0.3-1/boot/hvmloader'
builder = 'hvm'
memory = 1024
device_model='/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'

#Disks
disk = ['file:/mount/extended/vm_image/xp_disk.img,ioemu:hda,w']
cdrom="/home/billy/winxp_sp3.iso"

# Hostname
name = 'windows'

# Networking
vif = ['type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0']

# Behavior
boot='d'
vnc=1
sdl=0
serial='pty'



The problem that I have is that as I create this domain, it says
Using config file "./windows"
Started domain windows

but there is no window popping up. As I do xm list
there is a domain called windows with ID and VCPU with state 'r', and time continuously running.

Oh, and btw, when I do a vncviewer localhost:5900, I only get a white screen.


Can anyone please help?
Thanks,
- billy
