Hi,
I'm running FC7 with the 2.6.20-2931.fc7xen kernel and used virt-manager to configure a xp guest domain.
I receive the following message after trying to run the xp guest:
virsh # start xp
(xend.err 'Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.')

virsh # dumpxml xp
<domain type='xen' id='-1'>
  <name>xp</name>
  <uuid>0fe4b14b-ce6a-d84c-dc69-1f9e0cce544d</uuid>

      <readonly/>
    </disk>
    <input type='mouse' bus='ps2'/>
    <graphics type='vnc' port='-1'/>
  </devices>
</domain>

winxp.iso one provided in such a way:
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/var/lib/xen/images/winxp.iso

for an assistance I am very grateful,
Goodarz
