I have a fresh Centos 4.4 install and have installed the Xen 3.0.3 rpms for Redhat Enterprise 4.4 The system boots fine but the Intel e1000 driver doesn''t load. The driver supplied with Centos 4.4 works fine when booting Centos. Has anyone gotten this combo to work? and if so where did you get the e1000 module? -- Ron _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Just follow these steps 1. Download e1000 latest driver from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=42302. As on date, the latest drivers are dated Dec.14th, 2006. 2. Copy the file to /usr/src/. Extract it out. Go to /usr/src/e1000-x.x/src 3. Run "make install" 4. To ensure any old module has been removed, run "rmmod e1000" 5. Now run "modprobe e1000" 6. Assign an ip to the interface, "ifconfig ethx x.x.x.x" 7. See if you can ping the interface now. Hope this helps you. -- regards, Anand Gupta _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
