that would be the path to Windows ISO image.

use something like this

disk = [ 'tap:aio:/home/xen/domains/win01/disk.img,hda,w',
'phy:/dev/cdrom,hdc:cdrom,r' ]

no need for "ioemu", and tap:aio is recommended over file:/. adjust
/dev/cdrom to the path of your cdrom drive. I highly recommend you use
ISO image though.
