[Xen-users] No eth0 device found in domU

[Jens Seidel <jensseidel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I tried already a long time to enable network in my domU but I always
fail with:

# ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 up
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device

Do I need to load a kernel module?

I use OpenSuse 10.2 with kernel 2.6.18.8-0.5-xen (for both domU and dom0).

My config:

kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen"
ramdisk = "/home/jens/initrd.gz"
memory = 1024
name = "debian"
disk = [ "/home/jens/hda,hda1,w", "/home/jens/hda,hda2,w,", "/,hda3,r" ]
root = "/dev/hda2 ro"
vif = [ '' ]

network settings in dom0:

Shouldn't there are a peth0, ...?

I wonder especially about the state "disabled".

Network related domU kernel messages:
XENBUS: Device with no driver: device/vif/0

# xm list -l
 (device (vif (backend 0) (script vif-bridge) (mac 00:16:3e:05:5f:d0)))


Any idea?
Jens
