Re: [Xen-users] lost root password in guest

Still having issues.  I ran losetup twice - problem?  Also - I did not
creat a separate LVM filesystem for vutil - it just created the flat
file in  /var/lib/xen/images/vutil.img.  vutil is down.

[root@basket ~]# losetup -a
/dev/loop0: [fd00]:79331424 (/var/lib/xen/images/vutil.img)
/dev/loop1: [fd00]:79331424 (/var/lib/xen/images/vutil.img)
[root@basket ~]# mount /dev/loop0 /mnt
mount: /dev/loop0 already mounted or /mnt busy
[root@basket ~]# umount /dev/loop0
umount: /dev/loop0: not mounted
[root@basket ~]# mount /dev/loop1 /mnt
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[root@basket ~]# mount -t ext4 /dev/loop1 /mnt
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop1,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

[root@basket ~]# mount -t ext3 /dev/loop1 /mnt
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop1,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so
