Re: Dom0 (NetBSD) / DomU (Linux) - PCI Access

[Victor Dorneanu <victor%dornea.nu@localhost>]

First of all thanks for your advice. Indeed, it worked! Now I'm able to 
access the PCI device within my domU domain.
But currently I'm running into other problems...

My WLAN device needs the "iwlagn" driver in order to work. That's why 
I'll have to compile a new Xen domU kernel for my domain. Is there any 
tutorial out there how to do this with Debian unstable? I already 
googled but I couldn't find something useful.

Greets,

Victor
