Hi,

While following this (http://docs.openstack.org/cactus/openstack-compute/admin/content/creating-a-windows-image.html) guide to get a Windows VM running and to create a image from it I ran into some problem:

After running "sudo kvm -m 1024 -cdrom win2k8_dvd.iso -drive file=windowsserver.img,if=virtio,boot=on -fda virtio-win-1.1.16.vfd -boot d -nographic -vnc :0" I get the following error:

pci_add_option_rom: failed to find romfile "pxe-rtl8139.bin"

To fix this I had to install kvm-pxe; apt-get install kvm-pxe

Maybe we can include this package with crowbar / nova directly?
