I am running into the following problem in Xen 2.0 and would like to know if others see the same problem. Has this problem has been resolved yet (especially in Xen 3.0 or unstable tree):

 

a)       ide cdrom drive “/dev/hdc” cannot be exported to domain 1+. It can be exported, but it doesn’t work i.e. cdrom is not detected.

b)      Can the cdrom drive be hidden from dom 0 and only domain 1 see it so that the above may work?

c)       What about usb cdrom’s? Even after hiding the usb pci targets to dom0, I am unable to use the USB cdrom drive in domain 1 since domain 0 somehow sees it. Has anyone seen this before? Has it been fixed yet?

 

Thanks,

Utsav.
