Xen on Ubuntu: DomU hangs on boot

Hmm. Maybe the repeated boot-reboot cycle messed it the disk image. (If it ever was correct in the first place.)

How do I "loop-back" mount to check it?

Thanks

WAG: The image file you use for hda1 might be somehow corrupt. Try to
loop-mount it and see what happens.
