The default xen-tools installation creates *ext3* filesystems by default. Since your post mentioned reiserfs you were no longer using the default. There are options to handle the different filesystem mount options. You can see those in /etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf: $ grep _options /etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf > Why create an install that is, for all practical purposes, useless by > default? I just don't understand. I don't believe the configuration is broken by default. I also don't believe any that any "default" can be reasonable for all users when it comes to virtualization - if only because people have different ideas about networks, filesystems, and packages. (ObDisclaimer: I wrote xen-tools.)
