When I try to install Precise domU PV with this xl configuration file:

/mnt/vm/disks/PRECISE.disk1.xm exist, domU hvm with raw disks works

Is xen bug, kernel bug or my error?
Thanks for any reply

Hello,

I think that the raw parameter isn't needed and is the reason for the device connecting error. Another way to install the guest would be to use debootstrap. This definitly works.

Hello,

do you also have tried to install the guest with debootstrap?
