OK.

Yes, of course.

For instance, if I look for the file related to my gentoo guest I see
xl-gentoo-10.0-x86_64.log and the content is:
Waiting for domain gentoo-10.0-x86_64 (domid 1) to die [pid 6250]
Domain 1 is dead
Unable to get domain death info, quitting
It says it is dead because I issued the command xl destroy <domain_id>
xl shutdown doesn't work, as for the xl reboot.

qemu-dm-gentoo-10.0-x86_64.log and this is the content:
domid: 1

If no virtual machines are running no. But when the VM starts yes:
root 6412 0.1 0.7 118280 16512 ? Ssl 15:53 0:00
qemu-dm -d 1 -domain-name gentoo-10.0-x86_64 -nographic -M xenpv

As you see I use loop files for the root filesystems. In what sense do you say
it is interesting? I have only these files in that directory:
gentoo-10.0.x86-64.cfg
gentoo-10.0.x86-64.img
swap.img

I've tried to do that but it seems to be the same thing of using the file:/
syntax.
Thank you so much for your support.
