[Xen-users] no network interfaces in domU

[mherrn <mherrn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I have set up one domU in my xen 3.0 installation. Both, the dom0 and
the domU run under Debian etch.

I have configured the domU to use a static ip:

  ip="192.168.38.25"
  netmask="255.255.255.0"
  gateway="192.168.38.2"
  hostname="schicksal"
  dhcp="off"

These parameters are also given to the domU kernel on boot, as dmesg
tells:

  Kernel command line: 
ip=192.168.38.25:1.2.3.4:192.168.38.2:255.255.255.0:schicksal:eth0öff 
root=/dev/hda1 ro 4
  NET: Registered protocol family 2
  IP: routing cache hash table of 1024 buckets, 8Kbytes
  TCP established hash table entries: 8192 (order: 4, 65536 bytes)
  TCP bind hash table entries: 8192 (order: 4, 65536 bytes)
  TCP: Hash tables configured (established 8192 bind 8192)
  NET: Registered protocol family 8
  NET: Registered protocol family 20
  NET: Registered protocol family 1

The only thing I dont understand here is the 1.2.3.4 between the domU
ip and the gateway ip.

Then running brctl in dom0 shows, that the network bridge is up:

  bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
  xenbr0          8000.feffffffffff       no              vif25.0
                                                          peth0
                                                          vif0.0


But still, domU has no ethX interface:

  schicksal:~# 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:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
            TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
            collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 
            RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
  
  schicksal:~# ifup eth0
  Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0.

Also the hostname (schicksal) is set manually here by setting it in
/etc/hostname in domU. It is _not_ set automatically.

So what can be wrong here?

Marco
