I tried to attach a disk using ''xm block-attach'' to a Windows guest without GPL-PV driver. ''xm block-attach'' succeed, and also can see the disk by ''xm block-list''. But I cannot see it in device manager in Windows guest. So i''m wondering that if ''xm block-attach'' support hvm guest such as windows guest. Thanks in advance for any helps. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
