Hi,
personally I prefer to use option 1.
# Rename the original QEMU script:
mv /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm.orig
# Replace with a wrapper script:
echo '#!/bin/bash
oldstring=$@
newstring=${oldstring//rtl8139/e1000}
exec /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm.orig $newstring' > /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm
# Make the wrapper script executable
chmod +x /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm
Regards,
Michael
