Comment 5 Paolo Bonzini 2009-12-16 17:15:04 UTC
The next time this test is run, please make sure that you have another PV drive (i.e. at least one besides the boot drive) in the VM configuration.  It may be just a problem with how the tests are run.

Comment 6 Paolo Bonzini 2010-01-14 15:26:03 UTC
I added a patch to add a /nopvboot boot option.  If you run with this option, the page file will be on an emulated IDE device and the test should be happy.

Comment 7 Paolo Bonzini 2010-05-25 15:51:55 UTC
The /nopvboot option could be used to support QCOW for the boot device.  I haven't tested this scenario, but I'm adding a relationship to the QCOW bug.

Comment 9 Paolo Bonzini 2010-08-31 15:55:25 UTC
Fixed as part of xenpv-win-1.2.0-1 (distributed with RHBA-2010:0514-06).
