I have just installed Ubuntu 10.4 as my HN on my new sandy bridge based i5
This required compiling kernel-2.6.32.14-ovz32 to tame the sandy bridge chipset - no kernel earlier then 2.6.27 has a chance of this.

(I just noted the ovz32 part of the name - does that mean its 32 bit ?)

All works well (mostly): the HN is stable and tweaked according to instructions.
Proof of this is that ubuntu 10.4 CT works perfectly with full networking)

However, the centos5 CT does not start the network service. instead it reports that both lo and venet0 do not seem to be present.

ifconfig returns null
iptables -t nat -L
cant initialise and suggests that I may need to use insmod or upgrade the kernel.

Is this an incompatibility between the HN 2.6.32 kernel and the earlier centos kernel?

Thanks in advance
