Hello,

the system is an Athlon-XP with Gentoo Jackass 2005.2 NTPL up and running, gentoo-sources 2.6.14-r4, raid 1 for root, eth0 to lan.

these are the steps followed to install a xen domain 0, following the http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xen_and_Gentoo:

emerged last xen-sources (2.6.12...and its dependencies, xen 3.0)

switched the kernel to xen-sources, modified to fit into my system

modified grub.conf

moved /lib/ntpl to /lib/ntpl.disabled to get the xen ntpl warning off

rc-updated xend

the system boot up without dmesg or console errors but (for example) the ntp-client update fails :?

pinging directly (192.168.1.x) another host of the lan from domain 0 results in a "Destination Host Unreachable" error :(

before trying to build a domain U I'd like to have the system clean.

is there anything wrong with bridged network (item already added in the kernel) ?

I will post details, if needed.

thanks

Tender

What says ifconfig?

Have you compiled support for your network card into the dom0 kernel?

Can you find something about your network card in dmesg?

Do you have ACPI in dom0 on or off?

I'm sorry for the long replay, I was missing somthing strange in the bottom of the dmesg related to the broadcom 4400 net card

Do you have xend at startup?

Try to
Code:
/etc/init.d/xend stop
and then ping and then disable xend from automatic startup and than again ping.

Also
Code:
tail /var/log/xend.log
will be usefull.

one tip: I've the ip_forward and the network packet fltering in the kernel disabled.
is there any conf. file to tune for the dom0-host comm.?

Seems like you are not lonely with the problem even with normal kernel - try to search on google.

One quote here:

ix b44 large memory bug
The reason that I had many problems before seems to be due to a bug in b44 which happens when memory exceeds 1 Gbyte. Yes, I have the maximum 2 Gbytes of memory! For the time being, I am using a PCMCIA ethernet card to connect Internet, but of course I would like to use the internal ethernet card (Broadcom 440x10/100 Integrated Conroller for which the linux driver is b44).

I install kernel 2.6.9-1.667 source according to the instruction at http://www.eece.maine.edu/~sheaff/module.html. The kernel source rpm is found at http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.9-1.667.src.rpm .

rpm -ivvh kernel-2.6.9-1.667.src.rpm

Now I have many files including linux-2.6.9.tar.bz2 under /usr/src/redhat/SOURCE.

cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
rpmbuild -bp --target=i586 kernel-2.6.spec

Now, under /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9, we have kernel 2.6.9 tree.

Let's aplly the patch to b44.

cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9
wget "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=100988"
patch -p1 < attachment.cgi\?id\=100988

Now, /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9/drivers/net/b44.c and /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9/drivers/net/b44.h are patched.

OK, let's rebuild b44.

cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9
make modules_prepare
cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9/drivers/net
make -C /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9 M=$PWD modules


Finally, /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667//kernel//drivers/net/b44.ko has to be replaced with /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9/drivers/net/b44.ko.

mv /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667//kernel//drivers/net/b44.ko /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667//kernel//drivers/net/b44.ko.original
cp /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.9/linux-2.6.9/drivers/net/b44.ko /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667//kernel//drivers/net
chmod u+x /lib/modules/2.6.9-1.667//kernel//drivers/net/b44.ko

Yahoo! Now I can connect to internet through internal ethernet card!! Fedora Core 3 is working fine now!!!


Lets go to xen dom0 kernel and look for this:

[*] Local APIC support on uniprocessors
[*] IO-APIC support on uniprocessors

[*] ACPI Support


Another question - how much memory do you have?

You can try to patch the kernel with drivers directly from broadcom - I don' t have any experience with patching xen kernel...

Finaly try the latest option to solve it described here:

kox, thanks for your effort.

this morning I've tryed the kernel boot option "acpi=noirq" , but the test failed.

this evening, after the workday, I will do more try.

what about ndiswrapper?

ciao!
