I have not gotten this to work on my SLES10SP2 servers. Now I'm trying
it on a xen server built on CentOS 5. I can't get the test domU to boot
off the cdrom. The config file looks like:

name="acronistest"
uuid="6b04e99e-914a-f3fc-ef25-fbdabd72b430"
memory=512
vcpus=2
on_poweroff="destroy"
on_reboot="destroy"
on_crash="destroy"
localtime=1

builder="hvm"
extid=0
device_model="/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
kernel="/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot="d"
disk=[ 'phy:/dev/cdrom,hda:cdrom,r', 
'file:/var/lib/xen/images/acronistest/disk0,hdc,w', ]
vif=[ 'mac=00:16:3e:1a:fe:3f,model=rtl8139,type=ioemu', ]
stdvga=0
vnc=1
vncunused=1
apic=1
acpi=1
pae=1

usb=1
usbdevice='tablet'

serial="pty"

How can I force it to boot off the cdrom?

Thanks,
James
