I notice that I can only start up 8 guest domains from VBDs. When I try
to add a ninth:

        Error: vbd: Segment not found: uname=file:/path/to/image

Perhaps this is the problem? From dmesg:

        loop: loaded (max 8 devices)

According to drivers/block/loop.c, this can be changed by passing
max_loop=<1-255> to the kernel on boot. Should this be added to the FAQ?
