Hi,

try to change your line:

disk = [ 'file:/home/vale/hda.img,ioemu:hda,w' ]

by

disk = [ 'file:/home/vale/hda.img,ioemu:hda1,w' ]

I think that your domU is expecting a partition not a entire disk.

Cheers,

Marc

Hello,
I installed Xen with Opensuse 10.2 (xen packages included on this distro). I created an image file called hda.img (rwxrwxrwx and root owner) using dd, as the manual tells. I have only 256 MB of Ram so I gave 32 MB to virtual machine.
I changed xmexample1:
disk = [ 'file:/home/vale/hda.img,ioemu:hda,w' ]
cdrom = '/dev/cdrom'
boot = 'd'

I tried to comment cdrom and boot. Root device is set, by default: root = "/dev/hda1"
