[Xen-users] Destroying device model, Xen 4 Windows 2008 domU problem.



Hello,

I am using Xen 4 with Debian Squeeze and  trying to virtualize a Windows 2008 Server machine. I've followed these instructions:

http://alex.mordue.co.uk/blog/?p=85

But once i do:  xm create windows2008.cfg

The domU tries to start but then dies in few seconds with these errors:

in xend.log:

[2011-06-18 14:28:04 2254] INFO (XendDomain:1206) Domain windows2008 (28) unpaused.

In qemu-dm-windows2008.log:

And this is my configuration file:

name = 'windows2008'
kernel = '/usr/lib/xen-4.0/boot/hvmloader'
builder = 'hvm'
device_model = '/usr/lib/xen-4.0/bin/qemu-dm'
memory = 8192
shadow_memory = 8
vcpus=1
acpi=1
apic=1


# Choose a better mac address
#vif = [ 'bridge=eth0, mac=00:16:3E:9D:3E:22' ]
vif = [ 'bridge=eth2, mac=00:16:3E:9D:3E:22, ip=192.168.10.7' ]
## The VM has the following block devices
#  - A boot disk with a single partition for the OS, swap, and programs
#  - The installation DVD
#  - The PV drivers CD
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/eulervg/WindowsERP-SO-disk,sda,w',
         'phy:/dev/eulervg/WindowsERP-data-disk,hdb,w',
         'file:/opt/isos/en_windows_server_2008_r2_standard_x64_dvd.iso,hdc:cdrom,r']


# Boot from the DVD firstboot='dc'
#boot=''

usbdevice='tablet'

## Use VNC for the console.
vnc=1
vncunused=0
vnclisten = '0.0.0.0'
vncdisplay=2
vncconsole=1
vncpasswd='xxx'

#vncviewer=1
vncviewer=0
sdl=0

stdvga=0
serial='pty'
ne2000 = "0"


on_reboot   = 'restart'
on_crash    = 'restart'

I have tried with other configuration files that i have found in Internet but none of them have worked. I don't know wheter it is a misconfiguration or a bug ?

Any help would be appreciated.
