So always all my real partitions will be mapped from hd* to sd*. I
can't map from hd* to hd* hmm?

My machine has 512MB RAM. I have limited the dom0 memory to 128MB by
passing dom0_mem=131072 to Xen in GRUB.

I have assigned 256MB RAM to openSUSE.

These are the entries I have in xen-hotplug.log:

xenstore-read: couldn't read path backend/vbd/14/773/params
xenstore-read: couldn't read path backend/vbd/2/776/params
xenstore-read: couldn't read path backend/vbd/2/773/params
xenstore-read: couldn't read path backend/vbd/4/776/params
xenstore-read: couldn't read path backend/vbd/4/773/params
interface vif4.0 does not exist!
interface vif10.0 does not exist!
interface vif12.0 does not exist!
interface vif14.0 does not exist!
interface vif18.0 does not exist!

Makes no sense to me ... What is xen-hotplug.log supposed to contain?

Just in case its of some use, here's the output to "xm info":
