I will attach all the files you mentioned. LVM is just for the data partition,
my xen virtual disks are all partitioned (xvdp1 in above case is /, xvdp2 is
/disks/data). So booting is no problem.
domUloader is used, as I found this in an example on the Novell site. Didn't
know about pygrub, is that the preferred thing to use now? Do you have a link
to more info at hand?
Right now I had a problem again. A xen host didn't react when trying to "xm
create mailsrv2", so I tried looking with "xm block-list 0", which also just
blocked. CTRL-C and "rcxend restart" helped, then I got this output:
# xm block-list 0
Vdev BE handle state evt-ch ring-ref BE-path
51952 0 0 1 -1 -1 /local/domain/0/backend/tap/0/51952
How to get rid of this? I simply restarted the whole machine, then the domU
started (autostart via xendomains) normally. I would really like to find the
problem, as we want to use XEN in production.
Here's the xen config I use for the domU:
# cat /etc/xen/auto/mailsrv2
name="mailsrv2"
