Ok, I think I have the SMP part figured out and working then. Thanks for
your help :-)
I have multiple NICs in the box and want to allocate particular NICs to
particular doms. I haven't played much with bridging under NetBSD, and
I'm not to sure what the appropriate way to specify them for Xen is. My
bridge definition looks like this:
vif = [ 'mac=00:90:26:a5:90:31, bridge=bridge0' ]
What's the proper value for the mac address? Should it be identical to
the mac for the NIC I want to use, or should it be unique?
