Re: [Xen-devel] PCI passthrough issue

[Jean Baptiste Favre <xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello again,
Just tried without Xen network driver and got the same behaviour.
Would say hopefully because removing xen network driver prevent me to
use my domU as firewall for dom0 as I intented to do.

BTW, have no idea left :-/
Regards,
JB
