KNOWN BUGS in xen-tools

Bugs to fix before next release

[None so far]

xen-delete-image doesn't remove all logical volumes if --partitions is used.

See the link below for details how to reproduce. Reproducable at least with --lvm. Thanks to Antoine Benkemoun for reporting.

Bug Report
partitions were mounted in config file order, not in mountpoint order. That implies that if you specified :

/boot /

in that order, / was mounted over /boot, and you would not see /boot. Xen-Tools would then install boot on your / partition, and your boot device was just empty and unbootable.

Workaround for 4.2 is to write your partition file such as mounts overlap correctly when mounted in specified order.

Current (unreleased) fix is to sort by mountpoint length.

Fix would be to reproduce what mount does with mount -a.
