Just to check this, please can you start VM 2 first (using the exact same command line above), before starting VM 1. BTW: If the two VMs are similar, you might want to have a single shared config file and use vmid to setup the appropriate IP addresses etc. Unfortunately, xen 1.2 doesn't give very useful error messages if something goes wrong in domain creation. The 1.3 (unstable) tree is rather better in this respect. One obvious question is how much memory has the machine got? Dom0 will be consuming memory, as will Xen itself. What does xc_physinfo.py show?
