Greetings!

I'm having an odd issue while booting SLES 10 as a guest.
I've followed the instructions in the xen user manual:


          dd if=/dev/zero of=vm1disk bs=1k seek=2048k count=1

       mkreiserfs  vm1disk


       mount -o loop vm1disk /mnt
       cp -ax /{root,dev,var,etc,usr,bin,sbin,lib} /mnt
       mkdir /mnt/{proc,sys,home,tmp}
modified /mnt/etc/fstab:  /dev/sda1  / 

       umounted  /mnt
In the con?guration ?le set:
       disk = [?file:/media/disk/images//vm1disk,sda1,w?]



When I attempt to boot this guest I get the following:

vhost:/etc/xen/vm # xm create -c myvm
Using config file "myvm".

I've searched high and low, but could not find any meaningful resolutions.
All of the offending files seem to have proper permissions

Any help is highly appreciated.
