Package: xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-i386
Version: 3.0.3-0-2
Severity: important

When I try to start a domU with more than 6 vdb it crash.

The first time the vm does not launch and aparently wait for the loop
device creation (some scripts/block add, udev --daemon and sleep 1 process running). And nothing happen until I Ctrl+C the xm create.

My loop module is loaded with 64 loops.

After this first attempt the devices are created and I can relaunch it.
But this time it began to boot and crash in a dom0 kernel panic.

I use the 2.6.18-2-xen-686 kernels in both dom0 and domU.
system is a up2date etch + xen-utils-common from unstable.
System is a 2xPIII 1400, 1GB ram.

(PS: I can run another domU with 6 loop at the same time, it's not
globaly limited but per domU)

Thanks, I'll try to post a oops log once I got serial working.
