Newbie question: "error creating domain: vbd: segment not found"

[Quinton Hoole <quintonh@gmail.com>]

Hi 

I'm following the ttylinux example in section 3.3 of the xen user
manual, and getting the following error:

[root@localhost quintonh]#  /usr/sbin/xm create -c
/etc/xen/ttylinux.domain-config-file
Using config file "/etc/xen/ttylinux.domain-config-file".
Error: Error creating domain: vbd: Segment not found:
uname=file:/home/quintonh/Downloads/xen/ttylinux-xen

My domain config file is attached, but essentially looks like this:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-xenU"
memory = 64
name = "ttylinux"
nics=1
ip = "1.2.3.4"
disk = [ 'file:/home/quintonh/Downloads/xen/ttylinux-xen,hdb2,w' ]
root = "/dev/hdb2 ro"

And the file is there:

[root@localhost xen]# pwd
/home/quintonh/Downloads/xen
[root@localhost xen]# ls -als
total 26196
    4 drwx------  3 quintonh quintonh     4096 Jan 25 15:47 .
    4 drwx------  8 quintonh quintonh     4096 Jan 17 16:29 ..
16020 -rw-rw-r--  1 quintonh quintonh 16384000 Jan 25 14:39 ttylinux-xen

Any ideas?
