[Xen-users] xen on etch with xp help-almost there

[axel muller <dmdm00@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to Emre for your suggestion

here is the win01.cfg looks ok i hope as per the how
to


kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 256
name = 'win01'
vif = ['type=ioem, bridge=xenbr0'] 
disk = [
'file:/mnt/remote/xen/windows/xpsp2/winxp.img,ioemu:hda,w''file:/home/andy/iso-images/WindowsXP-SP2/image.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r']
device_model = '/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
boot= 'd'
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncviewer = 1


next is a bit i not understand

The ready to fire up the new machine and start the
Windows installation in a vnc terminal.

xm create win01.cfg

question1

must i use a vnc terminal from where
as xen and the etch kernel are shared?

question 2

one last queston my english is not to strong so a
friend sent me this mail please to simplify for me:

"the server providing the vnc connection is running
via the qemu-dm process on dom0. therefore, you do not
actually connect to the IP of the virtual machine (and
frankly, the VM does not even need to have anetwork
connection in order to access it via vnc due to the
exposure of the port via dom0)"

do this mean not use vnc?
