Are there instructions anywhere? Thanks. David 2010/1/11 James Smith <James.Smith@m247.com<mailto:James.Smith@m247.com>> Hi, Have you compiled XENHVM kernel? It makes some improvements to networking.= Ensure you add the correct device to /etc/rc.conf afterwards, I believe i= t changes to "xn0" when running XENHVM.

I see its using the emulated block/nic drivers. Is there any work being done on writing paravirt drivers for FreeBSD in HVM?
