[Xen-users] domU network problem

[Stefan Schueffler <schueffler@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

i have a problem with network configuration in domU.
My dom0 - system is SuSE 10.0, Xen-3 (suse-rpms, updated via yast)

in domU i also have suse 10.0.
xm create  works fine, the domU is booting.

now my problem is:
the network card does not appear as eth0,
but as ethX with X >= 1 and incrementing every xm create
(ie. after first xm create the card appears as eth1, after a reboot and a 
second xm create the card appears as eth2 and so on)

manually activating ethX in domU works as workaround:
cd /etc/sysconfig/network
ifconfig -a ---> getting "X"
cp ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-ethX
ifup ethX

or alternatively via appropriate ifconfig and route - calls

How can i set up xen so that the card always appears as eth0 ?

thanks and regards,

Stefan Schueffler
