Hello Fazar

Just conforming , Is the below fix is present in Xen 3.4 ? (Downloaded from Xen.org and source compiled) .

I assumed by looking at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=486353 and
http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg?rev/eeeb77195ac2 the fix
should be in Xen 3.4 already.

If this patch or fix is present on xen 3.4 then too things didn't worked for me.

The whole idea is to run Winxp domU with COW , so that we have one ( readonly ) winxp base image and one read write cow image.

Any more help related to this will be appreciated a lot.

Arun

Which dom0 kernel did you use? From Centos or from Xen.org?
