Just now after reset ADSL modem i've succeeded with dhcp lease ( just
once with unpatched kernel is enough) :-

set xnf:xnf_cksum_offload = 0
:wq
#
bootadm update-archive -R /a

It's well known bug - failure checksum offloading at xnf0.
Run tcpdump at any host on the LAN. Due to DHCPDISCOVER is a broadcast request you'll capture wrong udp packages.

Way to fix :-

Use the same commands with the installed system.

To make the settings permanent you also need:

echo 192.168.1.102 netmask 255.255.255.0 mtu 1492 > /etc/hostname.xnf0
rm /etc/dhcp.xnf0

echo 192.168.1.102 > /etc/defaultrouter

Qoute ends

You also still have to disable checksum offloading at OSOL DomU :-

Add to /etc/system

set xnf:xnf_cksum_offload = 0

and reboot .

B.

P.S. Personally, i was able to path throw initial install and just :-

Add to /etc/system
set xnf:xnf_cksum_offload = 0

I'm running a ubuntu 9.04 64 bit dom0 with kernel 2.6.29.6 and xen
3.4.0. My eth0 is bridged to br0 and to my guest VMs. The dom0 is
running a dhcp server on br0 which is able to provide leases to
physical machines on eth0, and also to a windows xp domU which is
bridged to br0. However my open solaris 2009.6 domU is unable to
obtain a dhcp lease.

On the opensolaris side I can see this:
michael@opensolaris:~$ pfexec ifconfig xnf0 dhcp start
ifconfig: xnf0: wait timed out, operation still pending...

With tcpdump I can see the dhcp request coming in br0, but no dhcp
offer going back out.

In the syslog of my dom0 I can see this when the opensolaris domU
requests a lease:
==> syslog <==
Jul 19 15:20:03 allendale dhcpd: 19 bad udp checksums in 37 packets


This also occurs with xen 3.3.0

Anyone had a similar problem? Any ideas what could be causing this?
