[Xen-users] various minor problems

[Doublehp <doublehp-xen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

1: is it possible to use ioemu:sda instead of ioemu:hda ?

2: is ioemu keyword optionnal ? conf seems to work without

3: why d i need to put vfb = [ "type=vnc,vncunused=1,keymap=fr" ] line ?
seperate vnc = 1 + vncunused = 1 look identical to me, but are ignored.
have the conf parser changed ?

4: during dom0 startup:
> * Starting Xen control daemon ...
> * Error: either "local" is duplicate, or "192.168.0.80/32" is a
garbage.       [ ok ]

before I do <<many things with my conf>>, it used to complain about
inet6. So, it seems the problem is not really IPv6 support, but
something else. This may be Gentoo specific issue, or even kernel specific.

192.168.0.80 is an alias for eth0; after Xend, all my IPs are removed,
and I have to re-declare all of them manually.

any idea ?

5: when i start a/any domU, syslog get filled of messages:

ATM it works, and domU have network, but I wonder about those ones, that
could induce problems in the future:

 May 19 18:46:29 uranus kernel: physdev match: using --physdev-out in

Thank you.
