I am trying to install Windows 2003 Server as a xen guest and I am having a problem. After the guest is booted from CD-ROM i partition disk OK, and while system is trying to copy files needed for the installation, it cannot read some files from CD-ROM (starting with wow32.dll etc.). I have tried also to copy installation disk onto local disk and load it from .iso file, but the same problem remains.
