Just to let you know, I've resolved the problem by setting DRIVER to "raw" at image construction and filling in the TARGET field with "vdb". Strangely, the disks still emerge as /dev/vda, which is actually convenient for sysad purposes, but still somewhat surprising. -- Lars Buitinck Scientific programmer, ILPS University of Amsterdam _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@lists.opennebula.org http://lists.opennebula.org/listinfo.cgi/users-opennebula.org
