Re: [Xen-users] Can't boot HVM Linux guests on Debian Squeeze Dom0

Success! I was able to boot my HVM sarge guest after making two changes.
 The first repaired a simple mistake - I had partitioned a single disk 
image using the installer in qemu with a swap and an everything else 
partition. The "Domain not found" error went away as soon as I 
replaced the erroneous "hda1" with "hda" in the disk parameter.
 
Shoot, I missed that, too.
 The second is more of a long-standing problem. In order to get the 
guest to boot, I need to completely disable networking by commenting 
out the vif=[] line. Trying to use networking, even with the defaults, 
results in the "xenbr0 not found" error seen earlier in 
/var/log/xen/qemu-dm-sarge.
 
 That's one that I still don't quite get, but must have something to do 
with broken networking scripts.
 Another question I have is this: had anybody had any luck using 
tap:aio on Xen4.0/Debian? Simply replacing "file:" with "tap:aio" did 
not work. I would love to take advantage of the efficiency of the aio 
driver, so any advice with regards to this would be appreciated!
 
 Try "tap2:tapdisk:aio:" -- it should work, in 4.0.1. Failing that, try 
"tap:tapdisk:aio".
