[Lguest] The meaning of /dev/vda

[wangji]

you need to enable virtio_devicedrivers as:
 CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=y
 CONFIG_VIRTIO_NET=y

this replaces lguest_blk and lguest_net in previous 2.6.23
make sure ext2_fs=y  too (the guest needs it !
Then ,once login /dev/hvc0 you will get

# cat /proc/devices 
Character devices:
229 hvc
Block devices:
254 virtblk
