Re: [Xen-users] How to set up real network cards?

  I have tested with 02:00.0 and 05:06.0 but I didn't succeed.
 My config contains pci = [ '02:00.0' ] (or 05:06.0), but not
 even the link of my NIC is coming up.

  I did a a unbind and bind as described in 5.3.1.3 in the manual.
 The ID is showing up in pcislots:

# [root@localhost pciback]# cat /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/slots
0000:05:06.0

  I am running a Fedora Core 5 here. I have edited the xenguest-install
 to include "pci =..." in the auto-generated config. The installer is
 also always creating a random MAC address - maybe this is the problem?
 (I will take a look at this later).

  Any other hints for me?

Thanks
 Frank
