Thread-topic: [Xen-users] Release 0.9.5 of GPL PV Drivers for Windows
Hi Jim;

Yes definitely - I have tried both hot plugging as well as adding to the
disk line.  In every case I specify that the disk should be writable.
It lets me create the partition which should be a write operation, but
then shows the disk as having 0K free space.

I am trying to capture some info on this right now using regmon - (lots
of output).  This definitely doesn't work with Windows Server 2003 R2
SP2 Standard 32 bit MVL (Fully updated and RTM).  I would be interested
to know if anyone else has this working and if so what version of
Windows they are running?  Have you tested this yourself?

Thanks

Geoff

Geoff, just to ask the obvious, you did specify 'w' in your disk
definition 
right? (In your config's disk= line, or on the xm block-attach line.)
