Hi,
I checked the FAQ, and, in item 4.4 it says:
"By default, Linux only allows up to 8 loop-back
devices to be active. You can increase this number
by setting max_loop=32 (etc) on the domain 0
kernel command line in Grub."
I understand the domain 0 kernel command line
in GRUB should be the one after "kernel" and
titled "module" that is responsible for starting
the dom0 kernel.
If I am wrong, may be the FAQ should be rephrased
in order to make that more clear to others. Pehraps
an example should help.
