Hi All
I have xen 4.0 in centos dom0

the machine was working fine for months and yesterday out of sudden I can no longer provision new vms and to make things worst If any vm shutdown I cannot re run it again .

the vm stop at the process of detecting the (ubuntu and debian all versions)
[!] Detect Disks "No disk drive was detected. If you know the name of the driver needed by your disk drive, you can select it from the list"

and when I choose xen-blkfront it doesnt do anything and I get the same message back

on centos the message is a bit different that the system cannot create /boot partition due to not enough space
I have attached the cfg file for installing the debian one

I tried to see the log exactly at the moment the vm tries to detect hard disk driver but nothing is written to the log at the moment

also I have attached the log when I type xm create command as well
here is my cfg for the vm

any help would be really appreciated
I am willing to pay for the help
this is a live server with live clients on it and I need any help here

Thanks
