[Fedora-xen] Network problem during FC5 XEN Guest install

[Mark A Heilpern]

For what it's worth I'm having the exact same problem you are... no solution for me yet.

In my case my dom0 has two physical ethernet interfaces and a Firestarter-managed firewall letting my local traffic (on eth0) NAT out to the internet (eth1), blocking most ports on eth1 from the outside world. I haven't explored enough to determine if either multiple eth's or the firewall are contributing towards my problem. I've failed both with DHCP in the guest as well as with a static IP for it. The IP I've used statically is 192.168.2.250 (where my eth0 device is 192.168.2.1).


Is there anywhere I can download a guest disk image pre-installed?

I'm trying to create a xen-guest install using  xenguest-install.py script, following the indications from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstartFC5
.
I've had to shrink mi xen0 domain to 128MB in order to allow guest to start install, otherwise I get the "The privileged domain did not balloon!" error-message.
I've exported the FC5 DVD through NFS from the xen0 domain itself hoping it will be visible from the guest during the install process.


Now I'm in the first stage of the anaconda Installer and DHCP IP learning does not seems to work, in fact no network seems to be available from the guest, because when I manually configure an IP, the guest can not see the NFS export either...


I've been tcpduming for a while, and I can not see any traffic from/to the guest. But in fact I don't even known if i should be seeing any traffic from the xen0 eth0 interface, should I?

Any help will be welcomed.


Thanks a lot.

Raul.
