Hello listmates,
It appears that on the second machine in a row (CentOS 5.5, 32 bit) if I am trying to place a VM into a file located in XFS the machine just hangs (the host machine, not the VM). If I place the VM in a raw device or in a file in ext3 all seems to work perfectly. Is that just a coincidence or is there a reason for this madness?
There may be a compatibility issue with the blocktap driver and XFS.
You could try an updated Xen hypervisor but I suspect the issue is with the CentOS Xen kernel driver.
