(changed the wordings bit)

The xmexample1 seems to contain

hostname= "vm%d" % vmid

Does this work with HVM ? I tried setting hostname=foo for my HVM based FC5 Linux domU. It does not seem to work.

Also, is there a way to set IP address for a Linux HVM DomU ?
I have seen somewhere (not in xen example)
  vif = [ 'ip=192.168.1.12' ]

How do both these work ? (if they are supposed to work )
Are some scripts run after DomU is instantiated ? OR are passed as kernel params ?

Thanks
/Jd
ps. anyone using these params, can u please send me output of
   cat /proc/cmdline
from DomU
