Pls, excuse the question. Is it posible to have support for NetXen 10Gbps NICs in XEN ? We want to install Debian Etch (2.6.18) and Xen, but we think we need to upgrade the kernel to newer version to have support for this nics. Does anyone has idea how to make this ? Is this possible to make a Installer CD with new kernel and XEN compiled to this one ? Thank in advance. Pls, reply to this email (neohal@hotmail.com) _________________________________________________________________ Put your friends on the big screen with Windows Vista® + Windows Live™. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/shop/specialoffers.mspx?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_CPC_MediaCtr_bigscreen_012008 _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
Hi, install Etch with some supported NIC (3c905,Realtek 8139,e100). Thank download and install Xen from sources - you have to compile kernel and than download NetXen driver sources http://www.netxen.com/products/downloads.html and compile it as module againt Xen kernel. Than you can remove temporary nic. It should work. I had to do it same way with Intel e1000 NIC.

sorry, this solution driver is only for a particular kind of network device NetXen ?

No, you can use it for other devices no included in 2.6.18...you have to try it if its compile correct with xen enabled kernel. I used it successfully with Intel E1000 gigabit card.
