Hey all, sorry if this is a stupid question, I am working on getting xen working and I exported a block device with AOE and passed it to xen directly as a physical device, and partitioned it from the domU installer. I was wondering if I can mount one of the partitions from dom0? to dom0 the device just shows up as /dev/etherd/e0.0 but doesn't show any of the actual partitioned parts of the drive. I know that /dev/etherd/e0.0 has 5 partitions is there anyway to access them directly? Thanks, Nathaniel ----- Nathaniel Madura Engineer in Research UMTRI - Biosciences 734-936-1109 nm...@um... |

Nathaniel, What this command report ?: fdisk -l /dev/etherd/e0.0 You should see a device for each partition. PS: It will be more convenient to use lvm LVs instead of partitions. Regards, Yacine.
