Re: [Xen-users] No networkcard with Xen2.0.6 (3C940)

["John Fairbairn" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not an Ubuntu user but I would think all you would need to do is to
create a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0(or Ubuntu equiv.) and
set the network to start on boot with 'service network on' or the Ubuntu
equivalent.

here's an example ifcfg-eth0 ..

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=192.168.0.2
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.0.0
BROADCAST=192.168.0.255
ONBOOT=yes

Hope this help some :)
