I have a problem trying to get my DVD-RAM writer to work for a particular domU
on my Xen 3.1 system. The domU boots fine, xend.log shows createDevice and
DevController entries for the device and xm list --long shows the device, too,
yet I can not access the device from inside the domU. When I try to
mount it, the
following happens:
mount: /dev/hdc is not a valid block device
or a variation thereof, see below.
I tried several things in the domu.cfg file's disk stanza:
'phy:/dev/hda:hda:cdrom,w',
'phy:hda:sdb,w'
and I think every combination thereof (like 'phy:/dev/hda:sdb:cdrom,w'
Fully virt or paravirt? If fully virt try 'phy:/dev/hda,hdb:cdrom,w'
Paravirt. I tried this combination (again) anyway, to no avail.
Then try 'phy:/dev/hda,xvdb:cdrom,w' and mount /dev/xvdb in the guest.
