Re: [Xen-devel] Excellent work; some questions, observations

Once you've installed on your hard disk, you'll need to update
/etc/xen-mynewdom to grant physical access as appropriate
for your root partition (plus swap and anything else you want it
to be able to access).
e.g. to grant read/write access to /dev/sda2. (In xenctl scripts,
the domain number being operated on is implicit. If you're
running the commands on the command line use the -n option to
specify the domain)
xenctl physical grant -psda2 -w
Is it safe to assume that granting write access to the same root
partition that domain0 started from would be potentially dangerous, if
not disasterous? In which case, a read-only root partition would be
more appropriate instead. I have separate partitions for /home /var
/usr /tmp /boot and /. I'd like to instantiate a unique but identical
domain without replicating the entire system. /usr would easily mount
read-only. The rest would probably need to be copied to a virtual
device on a single / mount. Any guidance on this?
Thanks!
