Xen users - Nov 2007 - Why is the first domU created with domid = 2 instead of 1

Hi,

I installed Xen(3.0.3) on Debian and created a guest OS kernel using
linux.2.6.19.
I can create domU successfully but I noticed that the domid I got for
the first domU
created is always 2, instead of 1 (dom0 has id 0). What''s the reason
for that?

I tried to trace the domain creating process and noticed that Dom0 does
try to create a domain with id 1 first but somehow it does domain creating
again and create domain with id = 2.

And one more weired thing, after I quit from domU, domU does not terminate
completely, i.e., it still appears when I run "xm list". I have to use
"xm destroy 2"
to stop it manually. What could the reason? Are these two problems related?

Here is my xen.cfg looks like.

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU"
memory = 16
name = "domU"
vif = [ '''' ]
dhcp = "dhcp"
disk = [''file:/xen/guest/domU.img,hda,w'']
root = "/dev/hda ro"

Thanks

Haifeng
