I managed to launch a PV domain with xm; still haven't tried anything
else with it.

About HVM, I'm using LVM storage here. When xm create'ing the device,
/var/log/messages shows

xbdback backend/vbd/3/768: can't VOP_OPEN device 0xa903: 16 (for block
devices)

xbdback backend/vbd/2/768: unknown device 0xc203 (for raw devices)


This looks like http://gnats.netbsd.org/42912
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-xen/2010/03/12/msg005804.html


block-raw.c now seems to be
/usr/pkgsrc/sysutils/xentools41/work/xen-4.1.0/tools/ioemu-qemu-xen/block-raw-posix.c


Adam is cc'd.

For now, I'll try installing a NetBSD PV and test it out.. anything odd,
I'll report.
