Another idea.


In this line:
> disk = [ 'file:/var/images/winxp.qcow,hda,w', ',hdc:cdrom,r' ]

you specify winxp.qcow file to use as disk for Xen domain.

AFAIK you must use raw images, but not qcow.

To convert qcow image to raw format
you can use the command:

qemu-img convert winxp.qcow -O raw winxp.img


After that you can check that winxp.img is correct raw image
with fdisk command (fdisk should show partition table on the image).

fdisk -l winxp.img
