Xen devel - Mar 2006 - [PATCH] remove dummy 1.2.3.4 IP

Is there any good reason that a dummy NFS IP address of "1.2.3.4" is
added to the domU kernel''s boot line (in
tools/python/xen/xm/create.py)?

In the past, I''ve seen cases where my domU would hang while the kernel
was initializing its networking.  Once I removed this dummy IP (as per
the attached patch), things came up fine.

Yes, otherwise kernel IP autoconfiguration doesn''t/didn''t
work.  Might
have been on 2.4 only though...
