Installing windows XP professional on a core duo with
Fedora x64 installed. Thanks for the pointer I will give
it a try. I assume you have not encountered this issue
because of embedding the asms with NLite.

to your above question:
up to now i was under the impression that nlite among other things
deletes some stuff, esp. asms dir, also.
but this is not the case for my lastly created iso.

i install that xp (x86) iso's under f7 (x64) with qemu-kvm !

and i believe the internal "mechanics" to do a xp installation with
virt-manager under a xen kernel makes not diff. to me.

maybe i'm wrong ?


but i tried it now and it leads me to your initial question:
do you mean the xp installation prompts you for file asms from

	*GLOBALROOT\DEVICE\CDROM\I386*

???????????

if so then it's described/discussed here:
https://virt.108.redhat.com/articles/2007/01/15/xen-guest-installation.pdf

page 5...

let me know if that was your question !


Tony

All,
Whether I utilize the DVD or ISO image, once the initial setup is completed, rebooted and restarted, I get the following pop-up:
"The file 'asms' on Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD is
needed"
Has anyone experienced and solved this problem using x64?

windows x64 ?
or
linux x64 and windows x86 ?

i compose win iso's with nlite
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLite

- unattend installs,
- all sp's/updates,
- no unneeded grap,
- no hassle with asms files/dir's
- small iso's
- ...
