Restarting system.

Could you let me know what could be the problem as I am not getting anything after that???My configuration file has following options:
# Kernel image file.
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-xenU"
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/sdb1,sdb1,w' ]
# Set root device.
root = "/dev/sdb1 rw"

Also, earlier I have copied the contents of my host root directory mounted on /dev/hda1 to /dev/sdb1 using dd command.please let me know if I am missing anything.

One more thing, instead if I try to mount /dev/sdb1 by issuing command "mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1" and then try to boot my XenU(guest), I get the following error:
/dev/sdb1 already mounted in privilege mode .

Please resolve my query.

Thanks,
Himanshu
