Re: [Xen-users] Can't boot domU from iso

[Mark Williamson <maw48@xxxxxxxxxx>]

There's some boot order option somewhere.  On my ancient version of Xen it's 
boot="dca"
 to set the boot order as CD, hard drive, floppy disk (for example)

Have you fiddled with this (or equivalent for your setup)

Cheers,
Mark
