You're right. Here's what I got

# cowd -p dscow --sync=a windowsbase /xenimages/windowsbase.dscow
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Device or resource busy
device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument
Failed to run device-mapper command!
Failed to create DM device

syslog:
Oct  2 11:34:36 kernel: device-mapper: unknown target type
Oct  2 11:34:36 kernel: device-mapper: error adding target to table

What's wrong? The file /xenimages/windowsbase.dscow does exist. Thank you.

The syntax is "-p dscow --sync=a".  In the above line, it thinks you
want to load the --sync plugin.
