There is a problem need you help!
When I use virt-install to create a redhat5 hvm guest on redhat5 virtualization platform, it generated a config file.
*****************************************
name = "rh5_hvm"
uuid = "257b4f8c-a468-2391-952e-12fd0fcae56e"
maxmem = 256
memory = 256
vcpus = 1
builder = "hvm"
kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"
boot = "c"
pae = 1
acpi = 1
apic = 1
localtime = 0
on_poweroff = "destroy"
on_reboot = "restart"
on_crash = "restart"
device_model = "/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm"
sdl = 0
vnc = 0
vncunused = 0
vncdisplay = "-5900"
disk = [ "file:/opt/redhat5hvm.img,hda,w", ",hdc:cdrom,r" ]
vif = [ "mac=00:16:3e:76:2d:bc,bridge=xenbr0,type=ioemu" ]
serial = "pty"
*****************************************
In this file, disk is named hda and hdc, but I do have two SATA disk sda and sdb.
And finally I cann't create the guest. Here is the information of the creating process.
*****************************************
[root at localhost xen]# virt-install

No console available for domain
Domain installation still in progress. You can reconnect to
the console to complete the installation process.
*****************************************
Running "xm list", I can see the information:
[root at localhost xen]# xm list

rh5_hvm 5 255 1 ------ 0.0
But when I try to login rh5_hvm using "xm console", I encountered an problem:
[root at localhost xen]# xm console 5
xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory
