Why not just side-step all of this and do your iSCSI initiating in dom0,
then LVM the LUN and boot the domU off of a phy: allocation?  I've seen
several posts lately regarding the complexities of iSCSI, booting
domU's, etc., and I'm wondering why no one is just treated like normal
SAN or SCSI LUNs.
