Help! Ok, I have a Redhat FC5 install as dom0 and a FC4 domU freshly installed (installed using QEMU and then copied contents of that image file to one that can be used by Xen). The DomU boots and is useable, but I have no network!?! I get this whenever eth0 tries to load: Bringing up interface eth0: Device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization. [FAILED] Everything I see says it''s something wrong with my domU config file, but I don''t see anything wrong with it. Here''s my config file name = "vm1" kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU" ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5xenU.img" memory = 256 root = "/dev/sda1 ro" disk = [''file:/guests/vm1-base.img,sda1,w'', ''file:/guests/vm1-base.swap,s$ vif=[ '''' ] If anyone could give me a suggestion, please let me know! _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Ah, sorry, I C&P''d out of nano, it is closed but was off the screen. The line is closed properly, here is that entire line. disk = [''file:/guests/scalix-base.img,sda1,w'', ''file:/guests/scalix-base.swap,sda2,w''] Thanks though! Also, I''ve tried specifying a mac address in the vif = [ '''' ] section as well, but that didn''t do any good. I checked the xend-config.sxp and the network is set to be bridged (as is set by default).

Tried that too, yelled at me telling me that it''s depreciated and that it was being ignored. See what I mean, it makes no sense why it''s not working.. _____ From: xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com [mailto:xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com] On Behalf Of Itamar Reis Peixoto Sent: Saturday, April 22, 2006 9:05 PM To: Mito; xen-users@lists.xensource.com Subject: Re: [Xen-users] Device eth0 does not seem to be present nics = 1 Ah, sorry, I C&P''d out of nano, it is closed but was off the screen.

Are you using the stock FC5 Xen kernels? If so, you will need to add the following line to the /etc/modprobe.conf files in your domU: alias eth0 xennet For some reason the Fedora guys decided to make xennet a module as opposed to compiled in, so you need to specify the module be loaded. I have come across this problem myself. It took me quite a while to figure out. Thanks, Phil Evans.
