I had trouble getting winxp installed within kvm too. Stopped with all
sorts of funny errors depending on how I started it (with/without acpi,
...). Don't remember the exact errors, but one disk-related was among them.
Happended only on my AMD box though, on the Intel machine it worked
fine. Both ran a quite simliar setup (Fedora 11). Which made me
suspect hardware problems. Tried to upgrade the BIOS -> works fine now.
HTH,
Gerd
