Aha, RIGHT ! thanks for this !! little mistake here .. now i am a step further but now the following happens: i create the domain, see the window poping up, grub shows up and then - no matter whats written within grub - boots my linux system (which is my Dom0) again :-( ????? i changed the boot order within grub to default to the windows system (because selecting by hand in the upcoming window is very very slow ...) but still boots my linux system .... which grub is used, i changed some entries withing grub of Dom0 but the changes are not reflected when creating the domain ? after selecting by hand i can choose the windows entry and boot the system. :-) ... BUT ... i hangs after a while, i cannot connect to it and it's not pinging .... i selected 'safe mode' during startup of the windows system and the last entry i see is: multi(0)\disk(0)\rdisk(0)\partition(1)\Windows\system32\drivers\Mup.sys hmm.. the logfile for the domain shows: set_map result i 3ff result bd2a5 HVMAssist BIOS, 1 cpu, $Revision: 1.138 $ $Date: 2005/05/07 15:55:26 $ ata0-0: PCHS=16383/16/63 translation=lba LCHS=1024/255/63 ata0 master: QEMU HARDDISK ATA-2 Hard-Disk (5375 MBytes) ata0 slave: Unknown device ata1 master: QEMU CD-ROM ATAPI-4 CD-Rom/DVD-Rom ata1 slave: Unknown device Booting from Hard Disk... int13_harddisk: function 41, unmapped device for ELDL=81 int13_harddisk: function 08, unmapped device for ELDL=81 *** int 15h function AX=00C0, BX=0000 not yet supported! *** int 15h function AX=5300, BX=0000 not yet supported! *** int 15h function AX=5304, BX=0000 not yet supported! unsupported PCI BIOS function 0x0E *** int 15h function AX=5300, BX=0000 not yet supported! int13_harddisk: function 15, unmapped device for ELDL=81 xm list shows that the created windows domain is still consuming time.
