February 2, 201412 yr I'm trying to migrate a Virtualbox ubuntu vdi to a new xen domU. Threads here & Googling has gotten it to the point where it starts. I've removed the vb guest additions & things seem 'ok', but on domU reboot the mac address changes and the router's dhcp assigns a new ip address. I understand this is by design, and through configuring the vif: with a mac= it should override the default behavior. what am i missing? bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub" memory = 4096 name = "towerbuntu" hostname= "towerbuntu" vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:01:01:02,bridge=xenbr0' ] disk = ['file:/mnt/cache/.custom/vm/towerbuntu12.04.32.img,xvda,w'] extra = "fastboot" vcpus = 3 vnc = 1 vncconsole = 1 vnclisten = '0.0.0.0' vncpasswd = '' vncunused = 1 pae = 1
February 2, 201412 yr looks good to me. here's an excerpt from my windows cfg file if it helps at all. vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:51:20:4C,bridge=xenbr0,model=e1000' ]
February 3, 201412 yr Author started working.. only thing i can come up with sshfs had a stale handle to the cfg & wasn't warning me when i was saving.
