Hi Jim,
i am using fedora-xen and VT on an new HP XW4300 workstation and i am running fully virtualized Windows systems on it.
i had the same problems as you and therefore i used a 'workaround' to get the things running:
i just installed 'qemu' and installed the windows system from an ISO file under qemu and then started it under xen control later - works perfect for me here.
if you need more information on what i have done exactly just let me know. there are some 'tricks' that can make your life much easier using this way of installation as the graphical output is very slow after the system comes up and you use VNC to connect to it ..
i haven't tried fully virtualized linux systems so far but i am going to do this soon ....
regards,
Matthias

Reposted from fedora-list?I did not even know fedora-xen existed until a coworker pointed it out, it's not listed on Fedora Portal. I have not seen any answers for this on fedora-list. ______________________________________________ I've installed FC5 32 and 64 bit versions on a VT-x capable Xeon server. I can install paravirtualized guests using /usr/sbin/xenguest-install.py per the quickstart guide with no problems. But if I try to install a fully virtualized FC5 or Windows XP guest using the VT-x (vmx) capability and an ISO install image, xm shows that a guest started, but I can never connect to a console or vnc session to see what it is doing or go through the OS install. Even the xenguest-install.py script fails at the point of trying to connect the console. The error is "xenconsole: Could not read from tty store: No such file or directory". I'm at a loss to know how to proceed or debug this. Any help would be appreciated. Is anyone even using FC5 on VT-x systems? The lists seem to be very quiet on this topic.
