IIRC, there were changes to the block back-/frontend drivers a while back, but that probably wouldn't do this. I would first look to make sure that your dom0 Xen daemons are in good condition. Occasionally, they will die or stop working. Watching the logs when you start your guest may give you some clues as to what dom0 may be hanging on. Restarting xend and/or xenconsoled (typically when your guest can't get a console or when ``xm console'' mysteriously doesn't work) may help. Anyway, you should update your dom0 kernel. That's pretty old. :) -- Christopher G. Stach II _______________________________________________ CentOS-virt mailing list CentOS-virt@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-virt
