Re: [Xen-users] Still having trouble creating a VM using xm create

[Shabs <shabswork@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Right. But what is the logic behind these lines? How is it supposed to be?
 
 These are my vols/devices:
 
 [root@localhost xen]# df -l
 Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
 /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
                       16822672   7280864   8673456  46% /
 /dev/hda1               101086     20680     75187  22% /boot
 /dev/shm                480296         0    480296   0% /dev/shm
 /dev/hdc                 63736     63736         0 100% /media/cdrom
 
 
 [root@localhost xen]# lvdisplay -v | grep "LV Name"
     Finding all logical volumes
   LV Name                /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
   LV Name                /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01
 
 Thanks

In the line above you have the same logical volume mounted in two places
at the same time. That could be your error.
