Thread-topic:	How to export USB floppy to Windows 2003 Guest domain ?

I was able to install Xen with RHEL as domain0, and windows 2003 guest domain.

I had a USB floppy disk can be mounted as /dev/sdb under Linux.

But how to configure HVM file to export the floppy disk to Windows 2003 guest domain ?

I tried to create an image of floppy disk with dd,

and then add “file:/xxxxx/floppy.img,ioemu:hdb,w’ to disk option.

But Windows only recognized the image as another new 1MB harddrive?

Anyway to do this?
