Re: [Xen-users] img file to physical disk

Hi all.

I've got a domU that exists in a sparse file image, I'd like to now use
this on a physical partition (loopback performance issues).

Is there an a easy way to do this ?

Thanks

Stuart

just stop the domu, mount the image and the disk
# mount -o loop /foo/bar/myimage /mnt/old
# mount /dev/sdx1 /mnt/new

and copy all the files
# cd /mnt/old
# tar c * | tar x -C /mnt/new

and change the domu`s config
