It should be possible to have two instances of Windows as a domU, however I don''t think you''ve used the best method to get this working. For one thing, your Windows SID will be the same on the two domUs. Have you been able to start dom2 without dom1 running?

For example, dd if=wintest1.liquidweb.com of=wintest2.liquidweb.com bs=1M As long as the two volumes are the same size it should work fine. You can even mount them using ntfs-3g and make changes to the SIF file if you need to. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
