This happened to me a few weeks ago on one of my domus. I just removed the root= line from the config and all was good. I must have copied and pasted

root= has never been needed.

From the present version of the howto guide:
- ---------
# Set root device. This one does matter for NetBSD
root = "/dev/wd0d"
- ---------

While I appreciate the difficulties of keeping documentation in sync I think "root= has never been needed" may be an overstatement. And I use "root=" on dozens of domU's all the time. But that's Xen2.

And I still think it would be better with separate howto guides for Xen2 and Xen3, as the latter is evolving while the former is still being used in production by many people.
