Hi,
I have a laptop, VT CPU, on which I would like to launch Full
virtuallization.
I am running Suse 10.2.
My network is about a wifi modem, DHCP.
The main interface is eth1, the wifi one. I dont use the wired interface
at all for the moment. xend-config.sxp is already setup with
netdev=eth1.
dom0 accesses to the net without problem. Although the xen bridging
script has setup the bridge, dom0 has really no problem either to
scan/list existent wifi networks/AP or to request via DHCP and get DHCP
offers.

The problem is the domU. Typically, when in the domU, I try to install a
Debian netinst: the DHCP request stays unanswered. I believe the wifi
modem offers the DHCP lease, but it does not reach the domU's NIC. Could
it be possible? What if it's not that?

Is it possible that the network-bridge script is not automatically doing
the right setup?

I cannot set manually the IP address, because the modem is not
NATting/routing IP address it did not offer. Things MUST go DHCP.
