Re: [Xen-users] Swap File

[Tim Post <tim.post@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Same here, I'm thinking perhaps the filename was fat-fingered or there's
a whitespace that isn't screaming out at everyone due to mangling by
mail clients. 

This is my config for my openQRM dom-u which works fine :

disk=['file:/images/dom-u/openqrm.72.232.33.70.img,sda1,w','file:/images/dom-u/openqrm.72.232.33.70.swap,sda2,w']

I'm kidn of anal about how I name the devices vs what the loops are
physically being stored on but afiak it shouldn't matter with a file
backed vbd.
