Hi all,

 

Sorry for starting up a new thread on this issue..email mixups :P

 

Anyway...I'm running Xen 3.2.0 on an FC8 system. I compiled Xen from the source code. The xen kernel is loading fine with the exception that when I try to start xend it says that device eth0 does not exist.

 

ifconfig -a results only in showing the loopback interface

modprobe e1000 and then ifconfig -a results in showing the sit0 interface in addition to the loopback interface.

 

ifconfig eth0 up results in an error saying that eth0 does not exist.

lsmod -a shows that e1000 is loaded

 

Also in the modprobe.conf file I have alias eth0 e1000

 

Any ideas what's happening ? Why it doesn't detect the eth0 interface?

 

Thanks in advance

Argyro
