FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE XEN running as domU on openSUSE 11.0 - 2.6.25.16-0.1 XEN



In fact the kernel boots now into full multiuser mode, network working also fine, using this xen configuration file,

#
# FreeBSD 6.3 RELEASE XEN configuration

name = 'nemo'
memory = '512'
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/sr0,cdrom,r', 'phy:/dev/sdc,hda,w' ]

On domU the following files had to be adapted:
/etc/rc.conf - network config for xn0 and disable usbd
--
#ifconfig_fxp0="inet xx.yy.zz.tt  netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_xn0="inet xx.yy.zz.tt  netmask 255.255.255.0"
#usbd_enable="YES"
--

/etc/fstab - using hard drive /dev/sdc ( D:)
--
/dev/xbd1s1b        none        swap    sw        0    0
/dev/xbd1s1a        /        ufs    rw        1    1
/dev/xbd1s1e        /tmp        ufs    rw        2    2
/dev/xbd1s1f        /usr        ufs    rw        2    2
/dev/xbd1s1d        /var        ufs    rw        2    2
/dev/acd0        /cdrom        cd9660    ro,noauto    0    0
--

/etc/ttys - added the following line
--
xc0    "/usr/libexec/getty Pc"        cons25    on  secure
--

Please, I would like to take the opportunity and to express my full appreciation on what has been done on the FreeBSD XEN port thus far. Thank you very much, Kip!
