RHEV - virtualization of win xp machine

[esggrupos at gmail.com]

Hi all,

I´m still testing RHEV as virtualization solution, and I have a problem  
creating win xp virtual machines.

With RHEL there is not problem, I have used a boot.iso to launch the  
installation and with a Web server with the source tree I do the  
installation.
The problem is with Win. (of course ;-)) I have seen in the demos that I  
must use a iso file with the installation but I haven´t such iso file. I  
only have an win xp installation CD

I have tried to make a iso file with the mkisofs command but I can get this  
file bootable.

so my two questions are:

Can´t I use the boot CD directly to create a win image machine (with vmware  
is as easy as to put the CD in the drive)?
how can I make a boot iso from the CD to use it to create a virtual machine

Thanks
