So your dom0 bridge name is eth0. Remember that.

VM on SLES 11


xm_vars.check()


#kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-xen"
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16.60-0.34-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.16.60-0.34-xen"
#ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-xen"

You need to copy original vmlinuz-xen and initrd-xen from old server,
and use that.
Do you still have module loading issue with kernel and initrd from the
old server?

On the old server i haven't issues with kernel or initrd.
I copied the the old kernel and initrd to sles 11 changed the entry in the config to
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16.60-0.23-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.16.60-0.23-xen"
and changed the bridge to eth0.

vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:00:00:d5, bridge=br0', ]

change the bridge to eth0. That's what "brctl show" says.

netmask="255.255.255.0"
# Set default gateway.
gateway="134.76.28.254"
hostname="vm35"

irrelevant, as domU sets its own hostname and networking parameters.
Might as well delete those lines.

But if i boot with the modified config, old kernel and initrd i find some failed on boot log

On my config the entry is vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:00:00:d5, bridge=eth0', ].
On boot i see eth-id-00:16:3e:00:00:12 which is the mac of the old network device. In YaST i get the same device with mac.

best regards
