Please ignore my previous comment.
Everything work for me except the fields I add to the list don’t appear in the create form.
I have removed the ContentTypes element altogether in Schema.xml file then its working.
Any ideas why this might be?

Thanks,
Kiran

@kiran – do the fields show in the site columns and site content type galleries (from site actions > site settings) and have you done an iisreset after deployment?

hi,
when we want to create a instance of list we need to create instance.xml file with some information. and we can insert some default data using instance.xml now when we activate Feature it will create new instance and insert the default data into list.
you know any thing about this if the i have a problem
