Description of problem: The "xm create" script checks the current directory before /etc/xen. If the current directory contains a file/dir of the same name as a config file it will kick back an error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xen-3.0.1-4 FC5 How reproducible: Create a file/dir in the current directtory that matches the name of an existing /etc/xen config file. Steps to Reproduce: 1. mkdir /tmp/foo; cd /tmp/foo; touch xm01; mkdir xm02 2. xm create xm01 3. xm create xm02 Actual results: Using config file "xm02". Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: 'xm02' [root@darkstar foo]# xm create xm01 Using config file "xm01". Error: No kernel specified Expected results: xm should check /etc/xen before the current dir to locate the config file. Additional info:
