Re: [Xen-users] xend MAC:FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF permanent set

Hello,
sorry for my late reply.

>Since Ubuntu is a Debian derivative, you may change the following file:
>/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules
i did that already, otherwise the system would not come up, as the MAC
address is set to that odd value already at BIOS time, no iam not joking ;)

>That or change the bridged ethernet to eth1 in xen config.
maybe i misunderstood your comment, but as the eth1 interface is the
former eth0 interface, intelligent as "udev" tries to be, it recognizes
a new MAC address and assigns a new interface as it knows it had eth0
before with another MAC, so eth0 goes to eth1, from that point of view i
dont know how i could change the bridged ethernet to eth1 as this device
does not exists(as long i dont want to stay with the FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
MAC address)

best regards,
 marco
