[Xen-users] Questions from a newbie (how to reboot/ windows vista crashing machine)

[Monkey Pet <monkeypet@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all, I started playing with xen on fedora 19 and really enjoying it.  I have some questions.

1. When I reboot dom0 by simply typing reboot, it gets stuck.  Is there another way to reboot dom0?

2. When I try running windows vista under a domU HVM, it works fine until I reboot the domU or force shutdown of the domU which causes the entire machine (hypervisor/dom0) to crash and reboot.  I tried using the cfg from the wiki and also tried using virtual manager.  Where do I look to try to see what is going on? is windows on xen?  Haiku and various Linux runs fine in the domU HVM.
