Hello, xen-users.

Tell me please is it possible in any way to start multiple domUs using the same 
disk? 
It looks like the only way to import the same disk into several domUs is 
achived by mounting this disk in the read-only mode. However I can't mount the 
root device in read-only mode (my linux simply won't boot normally). Is there 
any alternatives to do this? Clearly, there is no simple solution, as one have 
to manage all possible conflicts that may occure when two or more domUs will 
try to modify the same data.
