Package: xen-tools
Version: 4.5-1
Severity: normal

Hi

On a fresh jessie installation, I changed line 134 of
/etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf

fs     = ext3     # Default file system for any disk
by
fs     = ext4     # Default file system for any disk # default was ext3

Then when I create an image I get this error:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# xen-create-image --hostname medusa --ip 192.168.1.10 --gateway
192.168.1.1 --netmask 255.255.255.0 --size=20G --memory=512MB

The wanted file system "ext4     # Default file system for any disk" is
invalid.

If I remove the second # in the comment, it works.

I expected to be able to put # in a comment.


At the very least, the top of the file should NOT say:
Anything following a '#' character is ignored as a comment.


Thank you for taking care of xen. :)
