Dear All<BR>I want to use XEN to install Windows XP as guest on CentOS 5 as host . I tried as the followings :<BR>#yum install xen virt-manager kernel-xen<BR>#chkconfig xend on<BR>#reboot<BR>Then I booted my CentOS server using XEN kernel . I tried as the followings :<BR>#virt-manager &<BR>But when continuing to create the virtual machine , under Installation Method menu , I cannot select 'local install media (cdrom)' and just the Network install tree is highlighted . So I tried to reach the desired one , by issuing as the followings :<BR>#virt-install --paravirt --name WindowsXP --ram 128 --file /vm --location /mnt/cdrom<BR>But it didn't get through as well . Can you please let me know how can I do it correctly ?<BR>Thank you<BR> <BR><BR>
