Re: [Xen-devel] Unable to create guest domain AND mm.c/grant_table.c errors

I realized what the problem was: I was giving a relative path to the
loopback file. Even if I could be considered brain-damaged for trying
that, it would be nice if there were logging indicating wherethe failure occurred. 

Exporting a whole device still causes a hang, but file: works for me now.

works:
disk = [ 'file:/usr/src/xen-unstable.hg.tot/testing/newfs.00.vbd,hda1,w' ]

hangs:
disk = [ 'file:/usr/src/xen-unstable.hg.tot/testing/newfs.00.vbd,hda,w' ]

Did you set /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug to the hotplug executable?

This is centos4.1 so it is enabled by default.

-bash-3.00# cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
/sbin/hotplug

 

Also what is Aruns workaround? There is no email from Arun in this thread.

He sent out e-mail on August  24th when he had similar problems with timeouts.
