Answering myself : ubuntu was installed with 2.6.17 kernel, backporting the e1000 modules (v7.2.9) from this kernel version to 2.6.16-29 of ubuntu correct the problem.

Sorry for the noise,

Hi all,

I'm trying to install Xen on a dell E520 computer. I've a network problem while rebooting on kernel vmlinuz-2.6.16.29-xen, all do work well, dom0 (ubuntu 6.06) start but I have no network at all.

When booting on ubuntu, the NIC which is a Intel Gigabit Ethernet card drived by the e1000 modules does work correctly, but when the kernel xen is booted, trying to use the eth0 NIC give me the error :

SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device

Even after a successful modprobe e1000 (which seems to signifacate thet the driver is available for xen), I got the same answer.

I have try to install xen starting from binaries, and the compile it from source after discovering the problem but the problem persist.
Do I have to specify something particular while compiling the xen kernel?

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jean-Michel.
