Last problem I had involved changing one character in my configuration
scripts. Really easy once someone showed me what was wrong.
Well I think this issue is just the same. The moment I used apt to
install the Xen kernal and tools I lost internet connectivity. I have
been managing because I can restore connectivity be deleting the bridge
mpower@dodtsair:~$ sudo ifdown eth0
mpower@dodtsair:~$ sudo brctl delbr eth0
But that means any domUs will not have connectivity. I have not had any
till now so it wasn't much of an issues. But thanks to your help now I
have XP running.
Ultimately I would really like you to show me the documentation that
tells me how to fix this. I am pretty sure it exists but my googling
has not been effective in this area.
Some things that seem dubious to me are the fact that eth0(the bridge)
looks like an exact clone of peth0 from ifconfig. I would have expected
them to have different HWaddr and at the very least different inet
addr. Another dubious thing is the routing table, double routes one for
each interface. Shouldn't that confuse the heck out of the OS? Lastly
I have no clue why the next line is in the routing table:
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 eth0
Here is that status of my system on boot with networking broken:

I'll try the following before I send.
ifconfig eth0 mtu 1496
That didn't work.
