It''s better if you ask for help at the whole list. I''m now forwarding this to xen-devel, just make sure to reply at "xen-devel@lists.xen.org" so everyone can read and help. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
Some users ask me:>Hello Denis,>I found one of your post about asus U3S6 passthrough. >http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.xen.devel/137586>I may have the same problem as you (DomU cannot find the disk connected to the Marvell controller), and I would like to know if it''s now working for you ?>Have a good day.>Regards, >Nicolas > briancho ** @gmail.comHello, Nicolas, I have not found a solution. The problem ist SATA-controllers own BIOS and his initialization in XEN-guest. So I refuse from Sata-controller. XEN had bad disk performance in guest. I tried KVM with guest-image-file on SSD (mounted in Host system and through mainboard controller), here was best disk performance. But I needed graphic card in guest and I could not install the graphics card driver in KVM. As You know XEN, as KVM based on Qemu. So I tried Qemu. This solution I have left me.
