I''m running Debian 3.1 on a xen 2.0.7 kernel. I am
using lvm for my partions and are exporting 2 of them
to each (3 domU''s) as sda1 and sda2 which are used for
system space and swap space.
I have enabled swap in the kernel but none of the
domU''s have any swap space. I have created the swap
space but dmesg in the domU''s shows that i has failed.
When in the domU''s I cannot (which I am assuming
should be the proper behavior) list the sda devices
(since they shouldn''t exist in the domU''s) [ls:
/dev/sda*: No such file or directory].
This is my fstab:
/dev/sda1 / xfs defaults 0
1
/dev/sda2 swap swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0
0

I have taken care of the tls message already.
So I would like to know if anyone knows how I can get
some swap going. I wouldn''t want the system to choke
when I''m testing some web and mail stuff.
Thanks in advance for everything.
