[Xen-users] problem starting domains

[Luke <secureboot@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to start a number of lvm-backend domUs on a Dell Poweredge  
2850 (i've got nousb on the grub command line, and no usb in the  
kernel).
Some domUs are created and started successfully.

However, quite a few of my domUs don't start properly.  I get the  
correct Started Domain messages... but then the domain doesn't "go  
anywhere", meaning it uses .3 cpu time, then never any more.
I create the domUs by dd if=/dev/xen/base_image of=/dev/xen/ 
new_image, after creating a new_image using lvcreate of the same size  
as the base image.  I've verified that these images actually exist.
Looking through the log from xend.log below, i see an error about / 
dev/hda1 (the root device given to the domU on the command line,  
which you can also see in the logs) not existing.  Why would that be?
I'm running the xen-3.0 testing...

The physical machine has 2 Xeon dual-core processors with  
hyperthreading (which is enabled).  Should I disable hyperthreading  
in the kernel?  Would that make a difference?  I saw a post earlier  
about that...
Error log attached, with ip addresses replaced.

xen.log
Description: Binary data

Thanks for the help.
