Steve -
I appreciate the assist, i really do. Your configs make sense as i
understand them. In my case i am trying to utilize pre-built images as vm's
for some experimental purposes. So i have a swap and a filesystem in
/xen/debian i am trying to use with the configuration as follows:
kernel="/boot/vmlinux-2.6.19.1-2911.fc6xen"
ramdisk="/boot/initrd-2.6.19.1-2911.fc6xen"
memory = 128
name = "debian.3-1"
vif = ['']
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk =
[file:/xen/debian/debian.3-1.img,sda1,w','file:/xen/debian/debian.swap,sda2,
w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
and recieve the following during start up in the console
<..>
