It is the third times that I try to use Xen.
I install opensuse 10.2 with its 2.6.18.2-34-xen kernel. I have got a domain0. I would like to build a new domainU. I install opensuse 10.2 in /dev/hdb5 (ext3) as /, and it uses /dev/sda2 as swap partition (shared with dom0 opensuse).
I do not know what assign to root param and disk. I tried root ="/dev/hda1 ro" and disk = [ 'phy:/dev/hdb5,hda,w'] ; but does not work.
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen"
root= "/dev/hdb5 ro"
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/hdb5,hdb5,w']
memory = 64
vcpus = 1
builder = 'linux'
name = 'vm1'
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:65:3a:ca' ]
localtime = 0



extra = ' TERM=xterm'

This is what appears when I launch the domain:

linux-wsbh:/home/vale # xm create -c /etc/xen/vm/vm1
Using config file "/etc/xen/vm/vm1".
