hello all,

i've been messing around with Xen, and it seems that most HOWTOs
document installs by using prebuilt images.
i'm rather anal about my installs though, and i want to be able to
boot CDs (or ISO images). i've tried the following config:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen"
memory = 128
name = "andre_test_01"
cpus = "1" # leave to Xen to pick
vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0' ]
disk = [ 'file:/xendisks/andre_test.img,sda1,w',
'file:/xendisks/andre_test_swap.img,sda2,w',
'file:/xendisks/install-isoS/install.iso,hdc,r' ]
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-2.6.16.33-xen"
boot = "d"

the boot = d is apparently used to boot the cdrom, but it doesn't work
for me. i've tried copying the vmlinuz and initrd.

does any one have any ideas?
