Re: [Xen-users] Starting Xenbr0 looses connectivity

[Girish V <girish.xen@xxxxxxxxx>]

I tried Lenny and Xen 3.0 - same problem.

I wanted to try lenny+xen 3.2.1 - but on installing xen and rebooting,
the boot fails and it begins rebooting - before I can see the messages
as to why it failed. I tried adding a noreboot option in the menu.lst
- but this seems to have no effect -  it reboots anyway, after xen
fails to boot.

Maybe I should try something else.
Thanks.
