# Start the user's VPS by going to the user's ''Client interface'', selecting the VPS in the new tabs and then selecting ''Installation''.<br />
# Click ''Boot up'' to try and start the VPS<br />
[[Image:Dtc-startvps.PNG]]<br />
# Hopefully the VPS will start booting at this stage. This can be checked by typing ''xm list'' in the dom0 console and ensuring that the VPS is listed with a state of ''r'' or ''b''.<br />
# If the VPS does not boot up, type ''xm create -c /etc/xen/xenXY'' to start the VPS. See what errors appear. If you get an error stating that a directory ''is mounted in the privileged domain'', type ''umount'' to unmount it from the dom0 and retry. Press ''Ctrl-]'' to exit from the Xen console.<br />
# When you get to a root prompt, log in as ''root'' with the root password.<br />
# Try the following tests:<br />
#: ''ping www.demon.net'' to test network connectivity and DNS<br />
#: ''touch a'' to ensure the file system is read/write<br />
#: ''rm a'' to remove the test file<br />
