[Fedora-xen] Problem starting a full virtualized Windows Guest

[Sven Oehme]

Hi , 

this is fixed in the xen-unstable repro since at least 2-3 Weeks, since 
that i never tried a redhat kernel, which kernel you are referring to  ,

I've found similar problems installing a fully-virtualised RHEL-4 onto
FC-5; RHEL-3 installs fine.

It seems that the IO emulation in Xen-3.0.2 (which is what FC-5 is
using) has some problems in these cases.  The rawhide kernel follows the
upstream xen-unstable development branch, and that one works fine for
RHEL-4 FV installs for me; does that help for you?

Thanks,
 Stephen
