Hello.

     Should not put the puck as if sdxx or hdxx, but it sure is the 2nd
partition (this is how you create the partitions and is as seen from
qemu-nbd)

     Believing the links (/dev/disk/by-uuid/) and mknod devices
accessing the disk via qemu-nbd (probe with hda2,hdb2,sda2,sdb2). But
then when you start the domU in the bash-like console do not appear.
:(
     Then I did the same from the bash-like domU console and try to
mount the disk, the mount command shows the error 'is not a valid
block device'

        $ mount  -t reiserfs  /dev/sdb2 /aa
        mount: /dev/sdb2 is not a valid block device
If you can get into that back-like domU console again, try this:
ls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid
ls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid/fb5c6b0b-3688-43cd-8b20-d8fa3a0ba993

xen_vbd locate the module in the domU (SLES11SP1) and the module does not exist.
Looking in there dom0 (SLES11SP2) module, this in /
lib/modules/3.0.13-0.27-default/updates/blkfront/xen-vbd.ko (Package
xen-kmp-default-4.1.2_14_3.0.13_0.27-0.5.5.rpm)
I did not understand if the file
/lib/modules/3.0.13-0.27-default/updates/blkfront/xen-vbd.ko
is present in your system or not. If not, reinstall package xen-kmp-default-4.1.2_14_3.0.13_0.27-0.5.5.rpm. Verify if the kernel you are running is indeed "3.0.13-0.27-default".

It's also possible, that the module is present in the system but not in the initrd (check that). In that case, rebuid your initrd.

This reference should tell you how to add modules and rebuild initrd.

      I have already run out of ideas ..
      Any idea where to look and read?
Did you tried using ioemu flag?
