Further notes: 1. non-ubuntu specific: to get HVM devices to work on Xen pre 3.4.something, you need to use emulunplug=unnecessary or perhaps emulunplug=unnecessary,all on the command line. Otherwise Xen's non- support of PCI unplug means that failure to unplug the emulated devices stops the HVM devices initialising.
2. It is desirable that if both devices come up, /dev/block/byuuid/... maps to /dev/xvdX not /dev/sdX if mount by UUID is to work. I haven't yet checked this. It requires module init order to be right. I'm not sure you can work around this by blacklisting sd_mod as I think sd is built in. I have some patches to allow early init of old style xen block devices somewhere which I might be able to dig out. 3. historical experience tells us that having 2 NICs (emulated and not) with the same Mac address confuses udev fatally. In general in a virtual environment you don't want udev renaming NICs anyway, so start up scripts should remove this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/684875 Title: Patch to Natty 2.6.37-virtual breaks non-EC2 users -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
