Yeah, that’s because the Fedora rpm
kernels don’t include the network drivers, you have to enable the module, I
found that out on this list, and it’s also noted in my walkthrough.

You have
to add this to the /etc/modprobe.conf file in your domU:
alias eth0 xennet

Subject: Re: [Xen-users] FC4 domU
on FC5
I realize that. I was able to make it work by following the FC4
HOWTO. My tragic flaw was using mismatched dom0 and domU kernels - they
both need to be the same version. Many thanks to Etienne Duguay for
pointing this out to me off-list.
My only other problem currently is that no ethernet interface is being
detected by my domU. I can't find any documentation on this either.
Ideas?

The problem with doing it that way is that the FC5 HowTo (and
the included script) is only for FC5, it doesn't apply to, and doesn't work,
with FC4. This is because the FC4 boot-image isn't compatible with Xen,
where the FC5 boot-image is. I tried and tried and tried for 3 weeks to
get it to work the "right" way, and then finally did it the way my
cousin suggested I do it in the first place (the way that is outlined in my
walkthrough). If you want to do it via a walkthrough, you'll have to do
half of it to the FC5 walkthrough (the dom0 half) and half with the FC4
walkthrough (the domU part). BUT, that means, that you can't use that
script to make your domU image for you… as that script was written to work with
FC5.
Thanks
for the reply. However, I'm trying to adhere as closely as possible to
the original Fedora HOWTO. One thing worth mentioning that I did leave
out of my original post: I'm using the built-in Xen package that comes
with FC5, which can be activated using 'yum install kernel-xen0'. Hope
this helps.

Well look at it this day, this is either a crappy day for
you, or your lucky day, depending on how good my documentation was. I'm
still very new with Xen, but I have been messing around with several different
setups, and the most recent one is exactly what you just said you needed, a FC4
domU on a FC5 dom0. And with luck, that's the one that I used to
document the entire process so I could easily refer back to it later.

It's not much of a site, literally my own notes that I made
for myself, but hopefully you'll be able to make sense out of it too.
Also I noted in here how I got NAT to work through Xen.
I was going to post this in reply to a few NAT related questions once I'm sure
I have all the bugs worked out of that, I'm still messing with the firewall
rules. The entire Xen setup is working perfectly though.
If anyone else who knows what they're doing with Xen could
look through it and maybe give a few pointers or corrections that would be cool
too.

Hi
all. This has been mentioned once before on this list, with no resolution
that I could find. I'm trying to make a domU with FC4 running under a FC5
dom0. Following the instructions located at http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstart ,
xen produces these errors:
[root@localhost
xen]# xm create -c cpanel
Using config file "cpanel".
Error: Error creating domain: (22, 'Invalid argument')
[root@localhost xen]#
And from
/var/log/xend.log:

This is
my conf file /etc/xen/cpanel :
[root@localhost
xen]# cat /etc/xen/cpanel
kernel ="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4xenU"
memory = 196
name = "cpanel"
disk = ['file:/root/cpanel.img,sda1,w']
root = "/dev/sda1"
extra = "ro selinux=0 3"
[root@localhost
xen]#
I have
tried this with both the kernel mentioned above, as well as the latest 2.6.13
kernel for FC4xenU. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
