Hi,
I like to use harddisk device names other than hdx/sdx in DomU (because
I'm about to migrate a legacy system (which uses /dev/mdX devices) into
a xen DomU and I like to make sure that one day I won't mistake DomU's
/dev/hda1 with /dev/hda1 in Dom0 when running a mkfs ...)
if I specify
disk = ['file:/virtual/guest-root.img,sda1,w']
in DomU's cfg file, it works. but if I specify
disk = ['file:/virtual/guest-root.img,vxd1,w']
(or something like "md1") then xm create reports "Error: int argument
required".
any ideas ?
