Re: [Xen-devel] [Xen-users] XENBUS waiting timeout

I'm using Xen 4.0.3 and linux 2.6.32.46 for dom0 and domU as well. From xenstore-ls, I could see the numbers you mentioned 51713 and 51714 for my guest, but the log says that the devices for the numbers are not detected as follows:

This is from console after I execute "sudo xm create -c <config>":

You need to give more details. What is the version of your Dom0?
Is there anything showing up in the Dom0 kernel when this fails?

Can you also include your xenstore-ls when this failure happens? You should
see an entry for 51713 and 51714..
