Can be done much easier. Option (1): Use kpartx, it will create device mapper mappings for your partitions. Try "kpartx -v -a /dev/vg00/lvfoo", should give you /dev/vg00/lvfoop[1234]. "kpartx -d ... " removes the mappings. Option (2): (works only with xen kernel): Configure the device as virtual disk *in Domain-0*: "xm block-attach 0 phy:/dev/vg00/lvfoo xvda w". Gives you /dev/xvda[1234]. "xm block-detach ..." removes it. HTH, Gerd -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
