Can't add virtual disks

OK, kind of not liking this software now. Downgraded to GPL to see what the actual functionality of the product is vs paid... Only have one system but GPL is basically a crippled PITA! When I try to add disks to new guests I get the error:

Creating virtual disk on /dev/vg0/test_myriad_ca_3_img ..
.. creation failed : Failed to mount /dev/sdd1 on /opt : mount: special device /dev/sdd1 does not exist

. The disk shows up in the fstab correctly but the system will NOT restart until the offending disk is removed. Does the GPL version not allow the creation of new disks?

Status: 
Closed (fixed)

Though adding the disk as UNMOUNTED and adding it using UUID after boot works:

/dev/sda1 / ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
/dev/sdb1 swap swap defaults 0 0
UUID=3bc5918f-05e8-4ed1-a55f-c5f38a226bce /opt ext3 defaults 0 0

The only downside is you can't administer it live from the CM control panel or presumably snapshot it (deal killer)...

Seems like the underlying issue is that your VM isn't detecting the new disk when it is added to a running system.
