I'm trying to set up Xen.

I've tried both windows and centos and haven't gotten anywhere. It seems to start up correctly but I can't attach to the console (xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory) nor do I get a vnc session.
Doing an xm list the state shows up to be ----- (which isn't listed in the docs, suspended failed waiting for input, anything?)

Some posts seemed to indicate qemu but I didnt even have a qemu log being generated.  FYI I am running kubuntu 7.04 and booting into XEN correctly, also I have an AMD processor with Pacifica support. ( (XEN) AMD SVM Extension is enabled for cpu 0.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Muhammed

name = "centos"
vcpus = 1
vif = [ 'type=ioemu, bridge=xenbr0' ]
disk = [ 'file:/vm/images/centos4.img
,ioemu:hda,w','file:/home/syyid/CentOS-4.4-i386-binDVD.iso ,hdc:cdrom,r' ]
device_model = '/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
ne2000=0
boot='d'
