I find that the qemu-ifup is very simple, so I make a copy of qemu-ifup 
in /etc/xen/ directory. This time, the domU started and I saw the boot 
screen of BIOS in vncviewer. But the BIOS said:
CDROM boot failure code: 0002
Boot from CD-Rom failed.
FATAL: Could not read from the boot disk.

I'm sure that the iso file is well. And I tried to start another domU 
which runs windows, and got the same result: CDROM boot failure.

regards,
Bin Tian.
