Re: [MirageOS-devel] Errors trying the "block" example with Mirage 2.0+ and Xen 4.4

["Raphael 'kena' Poss" <r.poss@xxxxxx>]

For information, if I manually edit the Mirage-generated "main.ml" to say:

let block1 () =
  Block.connect "xvda1"

(instead of Block.connect "/path/to/disk.img") 

Then it works fine! However this is not what I want, as main.ml should really 
work out of the box. :)

It seems to me that there is some naming glue between the code generator, 
Block.connect and Xen that I don't understand. Can anyone shed some light on 
this?
