Hello, I think the problem I encountered is quite common to a lot of people.
These days I am trying to compile a XenLinux kernel from source. Everything works fine except the NIC card. I have searched a lot and tried a lot before I send out this email for help: (1) I have enabled BNX2 option when I compile the kernel. (2) I have downloaded bnx2 dirver source code from Broadcom to compile, but failed. (3) Some people say that it is caused by the Dell firmware. Any expert to confirm this?? (4) I noticed that many people encountered the same problem, but the solution they provided also does not work in my machine. http://harvey.nu/bnx2_module_driver_problem_with_xen.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg438366.html http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-poweredge/2008-January/034372.html Here is the details of my server: ------------------------------------------------------- Linux-2.6.18.8, xen-3.4.2: http://www.xen.org/download/index_3.4.2.html CPU: Intel Xeon E5540 Memory: 16GB NIC: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM 5709S Host OS: CentOS-5.4-x86_64 -------------------------------------------------------- Any attention or comment to my question is highly appreciated. Thank you very much! Regards, Luwei
