   FYI, w/ the latest merge with xen-unstable.hg, specifying a cdrom for
a VTi domain has changed.  Instructions for new configuration from the
cset comment:

        [qemu] Use xenstore to configure ioemu block devices.
        - read ioemu block device config from xenstore
        - don't require the ioemu: prefix on block devices any longer
        - allow change of media associated with cdrom drives
        - replace cdrom= option by :cdrom suffix on regular block device config:
          'file:/root/mytest.iso,hdc:cdrom,r'
        - don't create default cdrom drive anymore - to create default empty
          cdrom drive use: ',hdc:cdrom,r'

Thanks,

        Alex
