The second problem is that vm-install does not work anymore because it has also no access to the console. After answering all questions the following appears: "Installation wird vorbereitet ... Installation ... Konnte die Konsole der VM nicht anzeigen. Bitte verbinden Sie sich mit einem manuellen Viewer." After that vm-install hangs until i destroyed the domain in a new putty session. The problems were starting with the fact that i could not create a new domain with vm-install with a certain dvd-iso file (openSUSE 11.1) which was not a problem before different times. Maybe it was a mistake i made before, that i mounted (and umounted) xvdb (the iso file in the domain config) in a domU. Later i was reading that this shouldn't be done in a paravirtualized guest. I didn't try restart xend until now because i fear that the guests will not start properly. However, i don't know if it is a bug or something is getting corrupt in the xen system.
