[Xen-users] could not load modules.dep stops network from working?

["Peter Fellwock" <Peter.Fellwock@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Iam new to Xen and I am trying to FC4 and FC4 domains. I came across a problem when my newly created domain never gets a network. When I start the domain I get a fatal error that leads me to believe that thios might be the reason why I don’t have networking with the bridge:

 

Checking for new hardwaremodprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1411_FC4xen0/modules.dep: No such file or directory

 

modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1411_FC4xen0/modules.dep: No such file or directory

 

modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1411_FC4xen0/modules.dep: No such file or directory

 

mmap /dev/mem: Resource temporarily unavailable

mmap /dev/mem: Resource temporarily unavailable

modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.12-1.1411_FC4xen0/modules.dep: No such file or directory

 

The file obviously does not exist, so what do I do?

 

in the domain, the ip is missing:

[root@localhost ~]# ifconfig

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback 

          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0

          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1

          RX packets:44 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

          TX packets:44 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0

          RX bytes:3044 (2.9 KiB)  TX bytes:3044 (2.9 KiB)

 

 

And back in the xen master I know the vif is being created:

[root@xenmaster xen]# brctl show xen-br0

bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces

xen-br0         8000.00e0812e539c       no              eth0

                                                        vif25.0

and my conf for the domain is:

 

kernel ="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12-1.1411_FC4xen0"

memory = 512

name = "rawhide"

nics = 1

vif = [ 'mac=aa:00:00:00:00:11, bridge=xen-br0']

ip = "192.168.225.181"

netmask  = "255.255.255.0"

gateway = "192.168.225.1"

hostname = "grasshopper.active.com"

disk = ['file:/root/fedora.img,hda1,w']

root = "/dev/hda1 ro"

 

3 questions:

Why is the domain looking in /2.6.12-1.1411_FC4xen0/modules.dep?

Why is the vif being created but not assigned to the domain?

Are these two problems related?

 

Thanx,

-peter
