I am on Ubuntu 14.04, with xen-hypervisor and blktap-dkms installed. I have a vhd file containing a Windows Server 2008 R2 boot disk that was created by ShadowProtect's headstart restore and hardware independent restore. I can get it to work if I use the tap-ctl program to setup a blktap device and use that as the disk with the following in the xl config file: Disk = ['/dev/xen/blktap-2/tapdev0,,hda,rw'] However, that is a pain to setup and everything I am reading says I shouldn't use blktap anymore. Seems like in Xen 4.4, I should be able to just use: Disk = ['/path/to/my.vhd,vhd,hda,rw'] But that doesn't work. It starts to boot and then blue screens. When I look at the disk by booting the vm into a recovery iso, I can see the vhd "disk" just looks like the raw vhd file. Anybody have any idea what I am doing wrong?
