[Xen-users] Win7 domU doesn't start if vif is set

[Bastian Timmermann <bastian.timmermann@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

my problem is, that I cannot start a windows7 domU on xen4 running with 
debian squeeze. If I leave out the vif config parameter (just commented 
it out) everything works fine and I can connect through it via VNC. But 
without networking.
I already spent some hours of googleing, nut didnt find a solution. 
Maybe I used the wrong terms.
What can I try else to get it running?

Following:
xm create /etc/xen/domains/windoof2.sxp
Using config file "/etc/xen/domains/windoof2.sxp".
Error: Domain 'win7prof' does not exist.

The detailed error is:

[2011-04-30 19:08:57 1624] WARNING (image:552) domain win7prof: device 
model failure: pid 23718: malfunctioning (closed sentinel), killed; see 
/var/log/xen/qemu-dm-win7prof.log <-- (log file empty)
My Linux:

Linux apollo 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 8 00:01:30 UTC 2011

My xen-config:


kernel = '/usr/lib/xen-4.0/boot/hvmloader'
builder = 'hvm'
memory = '512'
device_model='/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
shadow_memory = 8

]
# Hostname
name = 'win7prof'

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

# Behaviour
