Re: [Xen-users] HELP! Cannot install Windows 2008 R2 in Xen
Hello Matthias,
that was it!
After re-downloading the image it worked. So...Xen is good, Windows
installer is bad :)
Thanks a lot.

I had the same problem installing 2008 R2 on Xen 3.4.1 / CentOS 5.3.
The problem turned out to be a corrupt install ISO and nothing to do
with Xen. I downloaded the ISO again and it installed without a problem.
Thanks
