I am having trouble booting a guest domain using the unified Xen kernel (it
works fine when using the XenU kernel). Whenever I try to create the domain, I 
get
the following message:
bl2-1:/tmp/xen # xm create -c vm1.cfg
Using config file "vm1.cfg".
Error: (9, 'Bad file descriptor')


---------------------------------
The build was done using 'make world' and 'make install', and there were no
build errors:

Xen version 3.0-unstable (root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 
<mailto:root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>) (gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE
Linux)) Wed May  3 14:23:44 CDT 2006
Latest ChangeSet: Wed May  3 07:33:01 2006 +0100 9920:915d5af5dc18
-----------
'strace' shows that files are missing:

stat("/usr/lib64/python/xen/xm/signal", 0x7fffffe08e40) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
open("/usr/lib64/python/xen/xm/signal.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
open("/usr/lib64/python/xen/xm/signalmodule.so", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
open("/usr/lib64/python/xen/xm/signal.py", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
open("/usr/lib64/python/xen/xm/signal.pyc", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
futex(0x501680, FUTEX_WAKE, 1)          = 0
write(2, "Error:", 6Error:)                   = 6
write(2, " ", 1 )                        = 1
write(2, "(9, \'Bad file descriptor\')", 26(9, 'Bad file descriptor')) = 26
write(2, "\n", 1

----------------------------------------

domU config file:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xen"
# Optional ramdisk.
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.16-xen"
# The domain build function. Default is 'linux'.
builder='linux'
# Initial memory allocation (in megabytes) for the new domain.
memory = 256
# A name for your domain. All domains must have different names.
name = "vm1"
disk = [ 'phy:sdb3,0813,w','phy:sdb2,0812,w' ]
# Set if you want dhcp to allocate the IP address.
# vif = [ 'mac= AA:00:00:47:CB:34, bridge=xen-br0' ]
vif = [ '' ]
# Set root device.
root = "/dev/sdb3 ro"
