Package: xen-tools
Version: 1.2-1
Severity: normal

For some reason, I cannot build a successful Sarge box with xen-tools
without the --cache=no parameter.  Whenever I use the --cache=yes I get
the following output, followed by the default screen on how to
mount/start the DomU image.  The passwd prompt, and error message fly
by, I never get any prompt.  I goes from command execution righ back to
root prompt, and shows me this.

In my syslog I can see the mount of the image; 

kernel: kjournald starting.  Commit interval 5 seconds
kernel: EXT3 FS on loop6, internal journal
kernel: EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.


And bootstrap 'appears' to run fine. I am not sure what is up here, but
since it works fine with --cache=no, it is no major inconvienence other
than the time to download the packages.. which is negligable.

cheers,
Ian.
