I opened a ticket with Novell but not sure how far I'll get. Here's the
part of the log where it fails. Maybe this helps?

INFO:   Installing devices with Id "root\xenbus" using INF 
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\xenbus_3CE744D7DCE655B553EEF7C47F4A1E5912FC7D99\xenbus.inf".
INFO:   ENTER UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices...
ERROR:  RETURN UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices. (Error code 0xE0000101: The 
required section was not found in the INF.)
ERROR:  Installation failed. (Error code 0xE0000101: The required section was 
not found in the INF.)
ERROR:  PnP Install failed. (Error code 0xE0000101: The required section was 
not found in the INF.)

Any help is appreciated!!!!

Thanks,
James
