Package: xen-tools
Version: 0.9-1-bpo1
Severity: minor

When booting a sarge system created with xen-tools (and changed to use
hda rather than sda, because of what I said in #352937) I noticed that the
swap didn't get activated. Upon investigation I noticed I could solve
the problem by just making the devices, calling the makedev script!

I fixed this in xen-tools by creating the
/etc/xen-tools/hook.d/65-make-devs attached.

It would be nice if this could be added to xen-tools either as-is or
with modification. Right now I'm creating both hda and sda, but it could
be adjusted to create just sda or hda depending of which one is used
(that is: supposing 352937 gets fixed too, otherwise just creating sda
would be sufficient).

Thanks,

Guido
