I have replicated the same situation on a second machine. For those it may help here goes. FC5 quickinstall Loadis the python installer without a hitch, however, when it tries to connect to my dhcp client, it cannot connect. brctrl show -> says that xenbr0 connects peth0, vif0.0, and vif1.0. Adding the services, Netmanager and Netmanager Dispatcher, then either restarting networking, or rebooting (not sure which i did) causes the following changes brctrl show -> says that xenbr0 connects only vif1.0 ifconfig only eth0, lo, and xenbr0 are listed The following will add networking to your domU, but remove it from dom0 brctrl addif xenbr0 eth0 I'd like for networking to still work in both dom0, and dom1, but for now I'll be happy I can proceed with installation. <div>On 4/18/06, Daniel Messina <<a href="mailto:dmessina@cise.ufl.edu">dmessina@cise.ufl.edu</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div style="direction: ltr;"> I added netplugd into my startup services and rebooted. Not sure how, but peth0 and vif0.0 disappeared, leaving eth0 and vif1.0. brctrl showed a setup resembling a previous post on this same topic. xenbr0 ... vif1.0 I added eth0 to the bridge. The result is a working domU, but at the expense of dom0's network connection, which ceased at this point. Currently I am using a seperate machine to vnc into the origninal, and will try to get vif0.0 to reappear</div><div style="direction: ltr;"> <div>On 4/18/06, Daniel Messina <<a href="mailto:dmessina@cise.ufl.edu" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"> dmessina@cise.ufl.edu</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div style="direction: ltr;">I'm trying to walk through the FC5Xen Quickstart, but keep running into this problem, I've come accross the same problem on a x86_64 and seperate i386 machine. After anaconda launches, I reach the Configure TCP/IP screen. My home network is setup for DHCP. I can't proceed past here. Here's the output of brctl show: xenbr0 8000.feffffffffff yes peth0 vif0.0 vif1.0 I have uninstalled iptables and selinux is set to permissive, trying to duplicate conditions from previous posts to no avail.
