BTW, Are you running on a 32 bit host ?

Hi, my qemu version is QEMU emulator version 0.13.0 (qemu-kvm-0.13.0). And
my host is Fedora 14 64bits.
I specified the qemu in my configure with the following according to the
wiki page(http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/QEMU_Upstream)
Thus, qemu-xen in the directory "xen-4.2.0/tools" is used, instead of
"qemu-xen-traditional".


   - device_model_version = 'qemu-xen'
   - device_model_override =
   '/root/work/qemu/_build/i386-softmmu/qemu-system-i386'
