Ok, the log now shows

_____________________________________________

The vm1 config file is now 

disk = [ 'file:/home/poncho/gentoo/gentoo.2006-0.img,sda6,w' ]
memory = 256
vcpus = 1
builder = 'linux'
name = 'vm1'
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:01:fa:c9' ]
localtime = 0
on_poweroff = 'destroy'
on_reboot = 'restart'
on_crash = 'restart'
extra = 'TERM=xterm'
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-xen"
root = "/dev/sda6 ro"

______________________________________

According to df -h the home partition is hda7. When I change the line
disk = [ 'file:/home/poncho/gentoo/gentoo.2006-0.img,sda7,w' ]
the system reverts to the old problem .....waiting for hda6 to appear.
