IIRC one of these involved CDROM handling for HVM guests. This should be fixed in Xen 4.2. If you want to stick with Xen 4.1 then I would recommend that you use xend. Ian.

Re: xl cdrom commands do not work when VM created with empty cdrom
xl cd-insert is still not working, neither with 4.2 nor with xen-unstable, I retried now on xen-unstable and I get this error: xl cd-insert W7 hdb raw:/mnt/vm/iso/QUANTAL.iso libxl: error: libxl_device.c:243:libxl__device_disk_set_backend: Disk vdev=hdb failed to stat: raw:/mnt/vm/iso/QUANTAL.iso: No such file or directory I tried to find the bug in the code to fix it. It seems that the backend must be removed from disk->pdev_path but for now I haven''t found exactly where to set it. -- View this message in context: http://xen.1045712.n5.nabble.com/xl-cdrom-commands-do-not-work-when-VM-created-with-empty-cdrom-tp5713415p5713440.html Sent from the Xen - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
