Hello, I have just installed xen 3.1 After booting kernel (without xen) I have one eth0 with static IP 192.168.0.4. NIC is a nvidia MCP65 ethernet on Asus M2N-X motherboard. After booting with xen kernel, eth0 disappears (config file still present). No peth0 visible. And eth1 has appeared with default config (it has not inherited the eth0 config). ifconfig shows lo and xenbr0 only, nothing else. ifconfig -a shows all the vif, xenbr0, eth1 but no eth0 and no peth0. Network is not operational. Does anyone have an idea of what is going on ? thx _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

After booting with xen kernel dom0, eth0 disappears (config file still present). No peth0 visible.

Network is not operational. Does anyone have an idea of what is going on ? Is it possible that xen kernel would identify motherboard NIC as different from eth0 ? Is it possible to force motherboard NIC to be eth0 ? thx _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

It is the combination of the nic-driver "forcedeth" and udev. Older versions of the driver could not get the MAC-Adress of the nic, so they randomly create one. But udev uses the MAC for creating the devices. With every boot the devicenumber is one more. eth0,eth1,eth2 ... For one nic and debian etch i fixed it with a rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules. SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{vendor}=="0x10de", ATTRS{device}=="0x03ef", NAME="eth0" Infos about vendor and device you got with udevinfo -a -p /class/net/ethxxx where xxx ist the current devicename of the nic. Please search in Google for complete howtos. Georg _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
