[Xen-users] Dom0 eth0 has different MAC address than expected, ignoring

["Ian W" <iw05t@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm a newbie to Xen and I need some help. I saw user 'datto' had a similar 
problem but changed to FC4 to resolve it.
I'm currently running FC3 and Xen2.0.7. I did the usual 'make install' and I 
can boot into Xen dom0.  However, my network card is not working. The driver 
is found in the linux-2.6.11.12-xen0 tree but not selected. I rebuilt the 
kernel by compiling the Marvel Yukon/SysKonnect SK98xx driver both in the 
kernel and as a module but to no avail.
So the error message I have is
"Device eth0 has different MAC address than expected, ignoring."

If I remove the MAC address completely either using the GUI or under 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and 
/etc/sysconfig/networking/ifcfg-eth0 (HWADDR), and I try to re-activate the 
network card, I get the message "sk98lin device eth0 does not seem to be 
present, delaying initialization."
I also tried using a MAC like AA:00:00:0E:1A:DF but still have the same 
"different MAC" message.
I don't think it's a driver problem since the kernel has the driver listed 
in the .config file.  Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks!

-Ian
