 Yes , but i still will always see all disk HVM access with iostat on the 
lvm volume device, no matter there is PV driver or qemu disk. So i ment to say
that HVM is doing both no PV driver & no qemu disk access while it gets 
stuck in the boot process.

 Possible race condition explains the lack of disk access, i'll try this 
version.
 Thanks a lot.
