Hi, I''m running 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5xen0 as my host and 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5xenU in the guest. I''m finding that the network doesn''t start when I start the guest. If I login (through the console) and manually start it, it works fine. e.g.: service network start Any idea what might cause this and how to fix it? R.

I''ve installed runit from an RPM with a script that installs it to inittab automatically. Unfortunately, it''s broken! It adds these lines: RV:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/runsvdir-start /var/service RX:S016:wait:/usr/bin/runsvdir-stopall /var/service But manages to delete the following lines: l0:0:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 0 l1:1:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 1 l2:2:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 2 l3:3:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 3 l4:4:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 4 l5:5:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 5 l6:6:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 6 I''ve added them back and all is well.
