I've found that the problem was caused because the 2.4 based guest
OS (White
Box Linux) didn't support modprobe.conf so didn't load the
CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND
Module. I've recompiled the kernel so that this module is built in
and it
resolved the issue.
Is there any reason why this module isn't built into the kernel by
default, so folks setting up 2.4-based guest operating systems (e.g,
RHEL3) can avoid building a custom kernel? Is there an easier way
that I have overlooked?
Thanks,
