Re: [Xen-users] boot existing OS

Hi,

The part about sda1 looks weird to me - actuall your whole thing looks 
weird.... the idea is to map the phisical devices into virtual ones.
so check this ... is your phisical hda5 really going to correspond to 
virtual sda1?
is your hda3 really going to correspond to virtual hda3?
... etc

The part that looks weird is that you are saying you have gentoo 
installed on /dev/hda ... usually I'd expect to see phy:hda1,hda1 entry 
or something like that (unless your gentoo is installed in some strange 
way - which is possible too)
