Gentoo in gentoo?

Question

linux

Good afternoon, dear experts!
Has anyone encountered Gentoo virtualization in the parent Gentoo. By means of hvm?

Answer 1

The question is that with xm create, the virtual machine falls into paravirtualization, and therefore there is neither an eth interface nor an hdd disk in the virtual system. how to overcome?

Answer 2

First, when building the guest kernel, you must specify the CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND and CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND options.

The drive will most likely be identified as /dev/xvd[az].

Secondly, in recent versions of Gentoo, network interfaces have a name like enpXsY, where X and Y depend on the location of the device on the bus. Accordingly, you can immediately create the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-my-net-ifaces.rules file, in which you can specify the exact interface name.
