Re: [Xen-users] Re: Xen 3.0 and Gentoo: basic network issues
Hi
The appropriate e1000 drivers are comiled into the kernel, not as
modules. Also they do show up under ifconfig and lspci, and of course
the drivers wouldn't show up under lsmod since I compiled them into
the kernel. And RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING is already set to "no" in my
/etc/conf.d/rc file.
I'm able to manipulate the ethernet ports as far as giving them IP
addresses and such, it's just that when I try even just a simple
connection between two computers and manually set both IP addresses, I
can't make any kind of connection, as far as Xen is concerned nobody
is at the other end.
I found the Howto was a bit iffy here. The howto suggests not starting
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 - however, when I start /etc/init.d/xend then
although the xen networking stuff comes up, no eth0 comes up... I am not
clear if it was supposed to or not, but having both /etc/init.d/eth0
starting as well seems to give me eth0 back again and ability to talk to
the Dom0 again... Can anyone please clarify whether xend is supposed to
bring up eth0 on it's own please?
Also note that RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING defaults to "no", but you need to
set it to "lo" - re-read the previous post! The reason seems to be that
otherwise xend comes up before net.lo which causes problems...
Finally, I have a Dom0 kernel running, but my DomU is failing to come up
every time with random errors. Would you please be kind enough to send
me (offlist) your .config files for both of your kernels? I suspect
that perhaps I have some missing bit of hardware... The only other
thing is that I compiled both kernels with a hardened gcc and possibly
that is causing problems...
