On different hardware with the same software I'm also getting problems
starting DomUs, but this time the error is different. I've attached a
copy of the xl console output, but basically the server hang at
"Mount-cache hash table entries: 512". Again the VM is paravirtualised,
and again I get a qemu-dm process for it.

The references to this message are normally related to memory issues,
but the server has only 1000M of ram, so can't see it causing too much
of a problem.

Is this related to the other problems I'm seeing or completely separate?

thanks,

Anthony
