[Xen-users] Xen Installation without virtualization enabled in Bios

["s@l" <sal.bayat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

Having a problem with Xen using RHEL 5.  Using a dell poweredge 1950 with
BCM5708 integrated NIC's.

Gigabit Ethernet (rev 12)

Basically, I have this strange issue where everything is good, I can create
my virtual guests, but there is some issue with network connectivity.  I can
get to the outside world no problem from the virtual host, but on the
guests, I can only ping the local machine, I cant ping or access anything on
the outside world. 

At first I was taking a look at drivers and other network related problems,
when I noticed that the virtualization option in the bios cpu settings was
NOT enabled.  I enabled it, but im still having the same problem.

My question is: Would installing RHEL 5 and Xen while this option was NOT
enabled in the bios cause problems and perhaps cause this networking
connectivity issue im experiencing? Do I need to reinstall xen? 

Info: 

version: xen-3.0.3-64.el5_2.1
