It's been a while since I installed a guest and I'm having trouble booting from 
a cd iso.
My config to boot from a CD is from before the new QEMU was introduced.  Has 
the syntax
of this changed?  Here is what I have in my config to boot from a CD iso file I 
have
on my dom0 root.


#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Disk image for
cdrom = '/boot/RHEL4U2-64b.boot.iso'

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# boot on floppy (a), hard disk (c) or CD-ROM (d)
#boot=[a|c|d]
boot = 'd'

The guest console reports:

CDROM boot failure code : 0002
Boot from CD-Rom failed
FATAL: Could not read the boot disk
