Pasi,
First of all thanks, have been scratching my head over this one.
Does this mean that I can't use the Windows 2008 R2 64 template provided in XCP 1 when installing the same os?
Do I need to do 'other install media' and then sort out drivers?
If so, why is the template there?
Thanks again,
Chris

Windows VM is HVM (fully virtualized), so it has emulated IDE disks, which are /dev/hd*.
(You can use optimized PV disks when you're done installing windows and you have
installed optimized Xen PV drivers).
