To get networking working, you'll need to set up the bridge manually: |

brctl addbr xenbr0 |

You may need to move the IP address to the bridge rather than the physical interface. Having done this, try a pif-scan: |

<pre> |

xe pif-scan |

</pre> |

This might create the network for your interface. |

Installing Windows
To install windows, you'll need an iso. These can be served by an NFS server. Try this:
xe-mount-iso-sr nfs-server:/path/to/isos
Then create a windows VM:
xe vm-install template=Windows\ 7\ \(32-bit\) new-name-label=windows xe vm-cd-add vm=windows cd-name=win7.iso device=3 xe vm-start vm=windows
PV drivers for Windows
wget http://downloads.xen.org/XCP/debian/xs-tools-5.9.960.iso mv xs-tools-5.9.960.iso /usr/lib/xen-common/xapi/packages/iso
After doing this, rescan the SR to pick up the new ISO.
