Hi, I''m running FC5 with the current 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5xen0 kernel in Dom0. I managed to set up several guests: 1) image-file based FC5 installed via xenguest-install.py. this one has the eth0 device and a working network, but I don''t want to use the image file, but LVM volumes (which seems not possible with xenguest-install.py) 2) a centos 4.2 based on an image file I downloaded from a web site. this one has no eth0 device in the guest, therefore networking doesn''t work. 3) FC4 using LVM volumes, installed via "yum -c http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/yum-xen.conf --installroot=/mnt -y groupinstall Base". this one also has no eth0 device in the guest. 4) FC5 using LVM volumes, installed via "yum --installroot=/mnt/ -y groupinstall base". this one also has no eth0 device in the guest. in the latter case, ifconfig in Dom0 looks like this: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:01:02:B5:F8:90 inet addr:192.168.5.10 Bcast:192.168.5.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::201:2ff:feb5:f890/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:855425 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:995199 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:568177794 (541.8 MiB) TX bytes:467490312 (445.8 MiB) peth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet6 addr: fe80::fcff:ffff:feff:ffff/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:855428 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:1 frame:0 TX packets:995245 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:568177957 (541.8 MiB) TX bytes:468158849 (446.4 MiB) Interrupt:9 Base address:0xe000 vif0.0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet6 addr: fe80::fcff:ffff:feff:ffff/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:995199 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:855427 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:467490312 (445.8 MiB) TX bytes:568177962 (541.8 MiB) vif6.0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet6 addr: fe80::fcff:ffff:feff:ffff/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:2715 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) xenbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet6 addr: fe80::200:ff:fe00:0/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:359 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:6 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:41441 (40.4 KiB) TX bytes:468 (468.0 b) domain config file: name = "fc5" memory = "128" kernel="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5xenU" vif = [ ''mac=00:16:3e:4c:77:fa'' ] disk = [ ''phy:/dev/vg_data/lv_fc5_root,sda1,w'', ''phy:/dev/vg_data/lv_fc5_data,sda2,w'', ''phy:/dev/vg_data/lv_fc5_swap,sda3,w'' ] root="/dev/sda1" extra = "ro selinux=0 3" on startup, the FC5 domain doesn''t complain about missing kernel modules etc. I also installed the kernel-xenU-2.6.16-1.2080_FC5.i686.rpm in the guest, but that didn''t help. any idea what I have to do to get an eth0 in the guest ? tnx in advance.
"modprobe xennet" solved the problem.> Hi, > > I''m running FC5 with the current 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5xen0 kernel in Dom0.
