Hi,
because of the commit below, you'll need xentools20-2.0.3nb1 if you update
domain_controller.h and rebuild a kernel. This should fix the issue with
partitions > g reported by Juan.
You can safely run xentools20-2.0.3nb1 with an older kernel and a
already-working setup, the upper bits of the dev_t will be truncated as before.
