I found it myself:

it's because in xml-file was /dev/sr0 . kvm checked the presence of sr0 
If sr0 is not present the boot process makes stop. 

Solution:  change /dev/sr0 to /media/cdrom0  (in debian squeeze always existing) 
    in xml-file or delete the disk section entirely:

   <disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
      <source dev='/media/cdrom0'/>       <<<==== changed 
      <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/>
      <readonly/>
      <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='1' unit='0'/>
    </disk>

BTW: unfortunately the cdrom is not passed throught. I'll find it out some day ..

Only WinXP-Prof is very slow. WinXP home is quite fast. I found
