Sorry, I wasn't very clear on this. Network is fine without Xen. I just use the HWADDR directive in my ifcfg-eth* files to fix the NIC ordering problem. The problems I described deal primarily with Xen. * dan.metcalf@xxxxxxxxx (Dan Metcalf) [2006.08.02 14:47]: > It is interesting that you have no luck w/ turning off a NIC in the BIOS, as > that is what I did, it works fine w/o xen, but as soon as I go into xen , > nothing > > Did you just re-enable the NIC or do a re-install after enabling the 2nd > nic? > > Thanks > Dan > > > -----Original Message----- > From: fedora-xen-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-xen-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] > On Behalf Of Cameron Moore > Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2006 3:05 PM > To: fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: help w/ xen & fc5 - unable to access network w/ > dom0 > > Sort of.
