This is not needed.

Right, this is the workaround to get the root on hdd1 instead of
/dev/ram0, which you said doesn't work for vmx.

Actually, this is a test that tests using a block device for root, not
related to vmx compatibility :)

Have you tried restarting your system?  There is a bit of a problem
with the console driver that causes this to happen sometimes.

You should do this:

  # TEST_VERBOSE=1 make check

and then grab the "xm create" line and try to run it manually with
"-c" to see if it's booting the domain properly.

PY> (2)"xm console" does not support VMX now. We could not get console

If this is the case, then a lot of work will need to be done to get
xm-test working for VMX testing :)
