Try surrounding them with single quotes like this instead: 'disk=[ "file:/var/xen/domainFoo.img,sda1,w" ]' Regards, Pablo It does not work this was either : [618] root@oplaslim9 [/etc/xen] xm create /dev/null kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen" memory=256 root="/dev/sda1 ro" disk='[ "file:/var/xen/domainFoo.img,sda1,w" ]' Using config file "/dev/null". Error: Device 2049 (vbd) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working. But somobody suggested another way, which is working : [613] root@oplaslim9 [/etc/xen] xm create /dev/null kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen" memory=256 root="/dev/sda1 ro" disk="file:/var/xen/domainFoo.img,sda1,w" Using config file "/dev/null". Started domain null Notice the removal of the [ ]. And it looks like it is possible to use several disks by putting several disk= parameters on the command line. -- Olivier Pernet We are the knights who say echo '16i[q]sa[ln0=aln100%Pln100/snlbx]sbA0D4D465452snlbxq'|dc _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
