Hi Ian,
the sata drivers are compiled into the kernel.
However, I fixed the problem and I can start the guest domain with xm create.
The problem was that I have messed up something with LVM so it wasn't working
properly. I created a new guest domain instance with loopback image and all is
fine.
Thanks to the numerous answers and help.

Hello,
Did you set your dom u config to use a RAM disk or are the sata drivers
complied into the kernel?

Hi Andreas, and everyone,
I did as you said and I set extra= "xencons=tty". Now the boot precess goes
some more lines further but now there is another problem. These are the last
lines of the output of xm create -c ...
...
fuse init (API version 7.7)
Done.
Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ...
Done.
Begin: Mounting root file system... ...
Begin: Running /scripts/local-top ...
Done.
Begin: Waiting for root file system... ...
Done.
chvt: can't open console
chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Bad file descriptor
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
chvt: can't open console
chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Bad file descriptor
ALERT! /dev/sda1 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
BusyBox v1.10.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.10.2-1ubuntu7) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs)
Does that mean that the virtual machine cannot recognize the file system? I
have a SATA hard drive and I am using the same kernel and setup as for dom0. I
tried also specifying the root device as its UUID but didn't work neither.
Do have any idea?
Thank you

Check if "xm list" shows you a running state ("r" for running or "b" for
booting, "p" often means that an error occurred). I guess you might have
forgotten the line
extra = ''xencons=tty"
so the domU seems to hang because it doesn't show the login prompt on
the correct console.
Compare to this thread:
