Now I'm one step further. The domUs will be created, but they are  
destroyed after seconds. I started one of them manually with console  
so that I could see the error message:
<boot error>
md: autorun ...
md: ... autorun DONE.
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown- 
block(1,0)
</boot error>

That must have been something to do with the kernel I'm using. I have  
to investigate (google) this. But if you can also help me in this  
case - you're welcome!
Cheers,

        Jan
