Hi Todd,

Thanks for the ideas.

> did you try xm destroy <guest VM that crashed> ?

Yes, I did that, but wasn't sure it was destroyed, as  'xm list' - it
just hangs.
But I assumed the domain was destroyed.

Do you know how to remove the entry from xenstore?
I had a look in /var/run/xenstored/   but couldn't really make
sense of anything there. Is there a guide to xenstore somewhere,
or any other tips on learning about it?

Cheers,
