Hi Jimi, Amos,
The problem of 'domU network up' has not been solved. Today, we learned a
few things with help from Amos and Yi.
The problem should be in the simplified init script, which did not bring
up the vif . There are two indirect proof for this speculation:
Here is the complete console message of booting Dom0. At the end, it
says various virtual devices are not brought up (unused) (See
attached file: cso83-boot-msgs-2006-10-25)
when first time issue 'xend start' after Dom0 is booted, there is a
message in /var/log/xen/xend-debug.log : set stp status failed:
Operation not supported
Yi encountered the same problem this morning, using the same ramdisk as
Jimi's (we assume).
I attach the xend.log info here if you can recognize some problem here.
xm create output: Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Backend
device not found.
output from 'XEND_DEBUG=1 xend start' : (See attached file: xend-msg2)
configuration file: (See attached file: conf2)
In the meanwhile, we will see if we can quickly try an environment that is
close to what Jimi has.
Regards,
Hao

Thats good.

this just works in my local disk environment and I'm pretty sure othe
local disk environments work as well.
Hollis, Tony are you able to create domain that have net access?
I have to say that this Linux/XM device config is not really my
current expertise, someone has to figure it out and know it. I'll
try when I get some time unless someone else get to it first, until
then please be our expert :)
This may be a good question for <xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> proper.
