Hey Andreas!

Could you please elaborate on how to "to create the compatibility mount
point 
/proc/xen". I added the line of code you mentioned to /etc/fstab and the
problem still persists.

The current view of my system mounts are :
root@pbhat-acis:/home/pbhat# df -ah

/dev/sda5             141G  8.9G  125G   7% /

Thanks !
