Hi,
I'm using XEN on FC6 and installed Windows XP as a HVM guest. My problem is that my
keyboard does not work early in the startup process (it works after the Windows GUI is
started[1]). I tried to use Windows hibernation and this failed so Windows always asks me
to confirm "Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu".
Unfortunately, my
keyboard does not work at this stage in XEN. I tried using qemu but had the same problem.
Any hints how to enable my keyboard at the early stages in XEN/qemu so I can start my HVM
guest again?

I was able to "solve" the problem by booting the guest with a cd image which
times out and
starts from harddisk after some seconds. At this stage, my keyboard worked and I was able
to confirm the question. After all I would like to a real solution for my problem. Any
hints?
