Hello, I'm a bit confused about using blktap2 on OpenSuSE 11.2. blktap2 is available in xen 4.0 but it seems that it was backported to xen 3.4. However I am unable to make it work. Does anyone have any experience with blktap2?? # xm create -c director01 Using config file "/etc/xen/vm/director01". Error: Device 51952 (tap) could not be connected. Setting up the backend failed.
