[Xen-users] Problems starting Xen on Ubuntu

[Stewart Outram <stewart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I have been trying to get Xen running under Ubuntu.

Status
------

I can get Ubuntu to boot on the patched 2.6.10 kernel however :-

a) I get several boot errors thus :-

device eth0 entered promiscuous mode

xen-br0: topology change detected, propagating

b) I lose sound

c) I seemed to have lost networking ( although ifconfig shows one of my
net cards eth0 but with no IP address

d) When I start xend ( sudo xend start ) nothing seems to happen. No
error reports but sudo xend status reveals nothing and ps-A doesn't show
xend running

e) If I try and start a new Domain "xm create -c config vmid=1" I get
the error stating that xend isn't running

f) Domain0 seems to be running somewhat slow


Regards


Stewart
