Hi Everyone, In my HVM guest''s config file, I have given my guest 3 interface. I have called them fw1, fw2 and fw3. I have joined each interface to a bridge on the Dom0. This does appear when I do a "brctl show". However, there are 3 other interfaces also added called tapx.0,tapx.1 and tapx.2 (Where x is the domain ID for the guest). Furthermore, I am only able to run

Hello, I set up a Sabayon Linux domU as hvm guest and I completed the installation successfully. The problem is that when KDE is going to start, I see a blank screen. I use vncviewer but I don''t think this problem is related to vnc.

Hi Everyone, To convert an HVM install to PV, is it just as simple as creating a new config file, and use the "kernel" and "initrd" parameters to boot from a XEN kernel stored in the Dom0, and use the (ex) HVM''s disk image in the "disk" parameter? Or is there something else I am missing? Thanks _______________________________________________ Xen-users
