[Fwd: Re: [Xen-users] lo doesn't come up]

Sten,
  The 'auto lo' itself wont do it. Do you have 'iface lo inet loopback' on
the next line? If that doesnt help you may want to try configuring it as a
static ip at 127.0.0.1 Also as a quick fix(you probably know this) you
should be able to 'ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1' after boot and have it
work(dirty hack = put this in rc.local or whatever the debian equivalent is.)

Hope this helps.
