Re: [Xen-users] Re: Unable to load eth0 and start xend--Using Xen 3.2.0o
|
I downloaded the Linux driver for the 57xx NetXtreme controller and installed. Oddly enough the name of the module is tg3. Anyway I cahnged the modprobe.conf again to have alias eth0 tg3 however the eth0 is still not loading saying that device does not exist.
Any ideas on what I might be missing or doing wrong?

I don't think you are trying to load the right module. Check your standard kernel and see what NIC module it is loading… probably something along the lines of bcm5700 or something like that. Make sure your xen kernel has that as a module and try again (after changing modprobe.conf obviously).
Cheers,

Also I just wanted to give you the type of my eth card if that would help:

Sorry for starting up a new thread on this issue..email mixups :P
Anyway...I'm running Xen 3.2.0 on an FC8 system. I compiled Xen from the source code. The xen kernel is loading fine with the exception that when I try to start xend it says that device eth0 does not exist.
ifconfig -a results only in showing the loopback interface
modprobe e1000 and then ifconfig -a results in showing the sit0 interface in addition to the loopback interface.
ifconfig eth0 up results in an error saying that eth0 does not exist.
lsmod -a shows that e1000 is loaded
Also in the modprobe.conf file I have alias eth0 e1000
Any ideas what's happening ? Why it doesn't detect the eth0 interface?
