I've only been using Linode a couple of weeks, and I know nothing about Xen vs KVM. I just installed Linode's Gentoo image file in a new VM, and started using it, so the below are the defaults. > First - are you using 'Auto Configure Networking' (is it enabled or > disabled in your Linode options)? Enabled. /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/conf.d/net both say "This file is automatically generated on each boot with your Linode's current network configuration." I'm not sure I'd dare change it, to be honest. > Second, do you have rc_sys defined, or are you using auto-detect (is it > just commented out)? Just commented out. Stroller.
