The problem is that the domain crashed so early on boot that you weren't
able to destroy it, and kept rebooting due to the "on_crash = 'restart'"
option. IIRC I've also used the following hacky rune in order to terminate
this kind of domains: "while [ 1 ]; do xl destroy <name>; done", but your
solution seems better.
Roger.
