Tim, This improved a lot. the domu does not become in-responsive
anymore. However, all four l2 guest are started. but 2 out of 4 are
hanging/in-responsive after 30 to 60 seconds.
L1 domu (sles11sp1)
-> seems to be ok
L2-1 propetary OS, seems to be ok
L2-2 propetary OS, seems to be ok
l2-3 sles10sp3, hanging/in-responsive
l2-4 sles10sp3, hanging/in-responsive
no degug/error messages in dmesg.
mfg,
jeroen
