Installing windows XP professional on a core duo with Fedora x64 installed. Thanks for the pointer I will give it a try. I assume you have not encountered this issue because of embedding the asms with NLite.
to your above question: up to now i was under the impression that nlite among other things deletes some stuff, esp. asms dir, also. but this is not the case for my lastly created iso.
i install that xp (x86) iso's under f7 (x64) with qemu-kvm !
and i believe the internal "mechanics" to do a xp installation with virt-manager under a xen kernel makes not diff. to me.
maybe i'm wrong ?
but i tried it now and it leads me to your initial question: do you mean the xp installation prompts you for file asms from
*GLOBALROOT\DEVICE\CDROM\I386*
???????????
if so then it's described/discussed here: https://virt.108.redhat.com/articles/2007/01/15/xen-guest-installation.pdf
page 5...
let me know if that was your question !

All, Whether I utilize the DVD or ISO image, once the initial setup is completed, rebooted and restarted, I get the following pop-up: "The file 'asms' on Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD is
needed"
Has anyone experienced and solved this problem using x64?
windows x64 ? or linux x64 and windows x86 ?
i compose win iso's with nlite http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NLite
- unattend installs,
- all sp's/updates,
- no unneeded grap,
- no hassle with asms files/dir's
- small iso's
