Re: [Xen-users] HMV + linux no network interface

["George Mavrogonatos" <jblackknee@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

The vif=['type=ioemu'] syntax is working (network interface is
detected) if I use
bridging. But I can't make it work if I use routing. The error that seems to
be is (from the qemu-dm.xxx.log)
domid: 11
qemu: the number of cpus is 1
/etc/xen/qemu-ifup: could not launch network script
Could not initialize device 'tap'

any ideas how can I have a network interface detected
when I use routing and boot an OS from HVM?
