Configuration file:
disk = [ 'file:/var/local/xen/xmtest1/sda1,sda1,w' ]
disk = [ 'file:/var/local/xen/xmtest1/sda2,sda2,w' ]
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"

Xen and kernels are 2.0.6 prebuild binaries. I also tried to install from
source or to use hda? instead of sda? with the same results.

Any hints?

Regards,
Michael
