I'm trying to install Windows as a guest in xen. Following the directions that can be found here:

http://www.xensource.com/files/xen_install_windows.pdf

However, after running the xm create winxp.hvm, no graphical window appears, even though it says the domain is created. When opening the Virtual Machine Manager, and double clicking the domain thats created, I get a message that says "The console is currently unavailable"

Any help/ideas?

I noticed 2 things the article says you need:

1) Does your CPU on your computer have hardware support for VT (Virtualization Technology)?

2) You seem to be starting Windows XP? The article was for running Windows 2003 Server.
