I don't understand this boot error from the domU:

Begin: Assembling MD array /dev/md1 ...
md: md1 stopped.
mdadm: no devices found for /dev/md1
Failure: failed to start /dev/md1

Why does your domU try to assemble a software RAID at all if..
That's what I wounder about

disk = [ 'file:/vd/domains/xen-etch/disk.img,sda1,w', file:/vd/domains/xen-etch/swap.img,sda2,w' ]

..it only has one block device?
only this one which is configured.

Is this a showstopper for you or does it carry on to boot normally?
It carrys on normaly.

Do you have an /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf in the domU?
No and of cause nothing installed like this.

Does your domU have mdadm set to run and assemble arrays?
I don't know but that I would not know. How can I figure it out?
Cheers,
Andy
