What's in your domain config file, and where is the root filesystem? It 
works for me with root on an LVM2 volume, and this config file.

The LV device is /dev/munkyII/vm-XXVIII, and xen-br0 is already configured 
when I start the domain.

Cheers,
Chris.



kernel = "/boot/freebsd-5.3-xenU"
memory = 128

cpu = -1
name = "XXVIII"

nics=1
vif = [ 'mac=aa:00:00:00:00:28, bridge=xen-br0' ]

disk = [ 'phy:munkyII/vm-XXVIII,loop0,w' ]

extra = "boot.netif.ip=10.1.70.28"
extra += ",boot.netif.netmask=255.255.255.240"
extra += ",boot.netif.gateway=10.1.70.17"
extra += ",vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/xbd0a"
extra += ",boot_verbose=yes"

erroneously I reply to you instead of ML
anyway  I tried with

disk = [ 'file:/xen/mdroot-5.3-small,loop0,w' ]
extra = "vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/xbd0a"

and the behaviour is the same.

thanks

I've just played about with my config file, and unless I include the net 
config in the extra string, I also get the hang you're seeing.

Try something like this, even if you don't actually want the networking:

extra = "boot.netif.ip=10.1.70.28"
extra += ",boot.netif.netmask=255.255.255.240"
extra += ",boot.netif.gateway=10.1.70.17"
extra += ",vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/xbd0a"
extra += ",boot_verbose=yes"


Chris.

It enables some extra sanity checking in places.

That was one piece of the code that I didn't do - I'll have to take a
look.
