Hello everybody,
short update on my issue:
I removed the Xen 3.0.2 packages (from Opensuse 10.1) and installed from
xen-3.0.1-install-x86_32.tgz; now the configuration options regarding IP
address and hostname are not ignored.
Does anyone know why they are being ignored in the latest stable version?
It also happens when installing xen-3.0.2-install-x86_32.tgz on Kubuntu 5.10,
so it is not a problem with the packages in opensuse 10.1
Regards,
Pablo
