I just fixed this problem a few minutes ago myself.

Try adding to your config file:
serial = 'pty'

Hi,

i’m a little bit stuck here with creating a HVM-Windows (w2k3) Guest under Xen 3.1.

I’m using ubuntu 7,10 with a 2.6.22.16-xen-patched kernel which seems to be stable for single cpu-linux guests. Cpu is a Q6600 and XD,VT and VT-d is enabled in the bios.

When i create the windows guest with ‚xm create w2k3 –c“ (conf below)

I get:

„Started domain w2k3

xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory“

i think i’m fine wiht that coz there is no tty in windows ?! ;)

so i do a netstat –lpn to search for the vnc-port to connect to, but there isn’t one ?!?!

in xm top the w2k3-domU takes 99% cpu load

the logfiles doesn’t show anything unusual.. any ideas ??

<<</etc/xen/w2k3

kernel = "/usr/lib/xen-ioemu-3.1/boot/hvmloader"

builder= 'hvm'

memory = 1024

shadow_memory = 8

name = "w2k3"

vcpus=2

vif = [ 'type=ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:00:00:11, bridge=xenbr0, model=ne2k_pci' ]

disk = [ 'phy:store/windows-test,hda,w', 'file:/mnt/store/backup/wide032a01.iso,hdc:cdrom,r']

device_model = "/usr/lib/xen-ioemu-3.1/bin/qemu-dm"

boot="d"

sdl=0

vnc=1

vnclisten="0.0.0.0"

vncconsole=1

vncpasswd='‘

<<<

Thanx
