Subject: exporting a single partition?

Hi,

Is it possible at the moment to export a single partition to a kvm
guest as a virtio block device, like you can with Xen?  e.g. with
LVM on the host, /dev/somevg/somelv -> /dev/vda1 ?

As far as I can see at the moment this is possible but it would have
to be the whole of /dev/vda and therefore contain a partition
table..

Cheers,
Andy
