RE: [Xen-users] error starting xen guest

[dinesh chandrasekaran <dinesh_chan8@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks so much... it works.... :)

Now I have one more problem...

'/etc/init.d/net.eth0 start' in DOM-0 says,

        * network interface eth0 does not exist
        * Please verify hardware or kernel module (driver)

please help me fix this as well.

My dmesg output in DOM-0 says...
