Thread-topic: XP: VBD could not connect to backend device: USB boot
Hi:
 
we have following setup:
 
1. 2.6.16-33-based Xen 3.0.3/Xen-3.0.4 DOM-0 kernels.
2. Using LILO-mbootpack from USB we boot Xen-->DOM-0 setup
3. We mount harddisk and try to install xp.hvm
 
While,we are successful with FCs as DOM-U, for XP we get, VBD (768) could not be connected.
 
We do have max_loop count to 64 and enough loop devices.
 
Note that above error is consistent on both 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 distributions.
 
Any help will be appreciated.
 
Thanks.
 
-Kaushik
