I just upgraded a perfectly stable xen-2.0.6 system to the xen-3.0-testing, changeset 8269:a91e4dcf629d I believe. My system uses LVM's for most of the DomU drives and I have 1 USB drive that I mount into a DomU. After the upgrade I can no longer get my USB drive to mount. In the DomU I get "VFS: Cannot open root device "sda1" or unknown-block(2,0)". This also leaves a zombie behind. Nothing interesting in any of the xendlogs other than telling me the domain crashed. I did get this kernel message from Dom0 right after the network interface is brought up
