Grant domain 1 access using the -w flag and the file will not disappear! Also, the latest check-in contains a fix to Xenolinux so that you cannot mount a read-only partition for read-write access. Much saner :-) Oh yeah: this is now the latest-semistable release. Please beat up on it and let us know of any weirdnesses. It's probably a good idea for us to push out a proper 1.1 release before starting our next batch of big hacks! -- Keir ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
