No, "-c" just means "attach to the console", it doesn't take a filename. And "xm create -c $GUESTNAME" works fine for me. > If one proceeds according to the instructions, and the current working > directory isn't /etc/xen, an unhelpful error will occur: > [root@domzero2 xen]# xm create -c svn > Using config file "svn". This means that it is picking up another file named "svn" in the current directory, not in /etc/xen. If it was picking up an /etc/xen/svn file, it would say so on that "Using config file" line. This is not a bug, you've given it an existing file to work on, but it's not a valid config file, so you get an error. Cheers, Stephen
