Hi again,
It seems to me that really are a problem here. I've created a new
virtual machine, but after shuting down it I can't create it again. The
error reported is:
[root@inf16 ssh]# xm create /etc/xen/granit.cfg -c
Using config file "/etc/xen/granit.cfg".
Error: destroyDevice() takes exactly 3 arguments (2 given)
Thanks,
Jordi

Probably a few days before it goes to updates-testing, so don't
expect it to go to updates for at least a week

Urm - read my explanation below again....
The 'Error: destroyDevice() takes exactly 3 arguments (2 given)' problem
is *NOT* what is causing your guest to fail. It is merely obscuring the
underlying failure - an updated RPM will remove up the 'destroyDevice'
misleading message, but it won't magically make your guest work again.
The fundamental problem is a configuration issue with your guest's virtual
disk or networking. Once you fix the config problem, the guest will work
just fine, with or without an updated RPM for the 'destroyDevice' issue
