Hello,
I'm running NetBSD 5.0_STABLE/amd64 with Xen 3.3.1.
I would like to run OpenBSD 4.6 as a domU.
It boots but freezes in the begining of the boot process.
I just see a blue banner after the kernel has been loaded.
'xm dmesg' doesn't say anything.
I run OpenBSD 4.6 in the same setup as you have, and the only problem I
have with it is
network related (packets going out from the bridge may be trashed, but
that is unrelated to
your problem). My config looks like this:
kernel = "/usr/pkg/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
memory = 256
name = "openbsd7"
vif = [ 'mac=08:00:26:12:34:07, bridge=bridge0, type=ioemu, model=e1000' ]
device_model = '/usr/pkg/libexec/qemu-dm'
disk = [ 'file:/export/openbsd7/openbsdfs,ioemu:hda,w',
'file:/home/ragge/install45.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r' ]
boot='c'
vnc = 1
vncdisplay = 7
usb=1
usbdevice='tablet'
It might be your vnc settings that needs to be tweaked.

My configuration file is:
-----
name = "obsd"
kernel = "/usr/pkg/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
builder='hvm'
device_model = '/usr/pkg/libexec/qemu-dm'
memory = 256
vif = [ 'bridge=bridge0, type=ioemu, model=ne2k_pci' ]
disk = [ 'file:/home/xen/obsd/disk,ioemu:hda,w', \
'file:/home/xen/obsd/install46.iso,ioemu:hdc:cdrom,r' ]
#disk = [ 'file:/home/xen/obsd/disk,ioemu:hda,w' ]
boot='d'
vnc = 1
vncdisplay = 0
vncunused = 0
vncpasswd = ""
vnclisten = '10.0.0.52'

I also tried various options from
http://blog.dcoy.org/2009/05/03/openbsd-45-released-install-as-xen-domu-4275.html
but I can't have obsd to boot.
Anyone has a working configuration to show ?
TIA,
Jo
