static IPs

Neither file exists.  I'm not actually using Xen yet, I'm just booting with
the Xen kernel to try to set it up.

I know, and that's driving me crazy.

linksys is the name for 192.168.1.1, defined in /etc/hosts.  If I do a
netstat -r -n so it doesn't show hostnames it comes out like this

netstat -r -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt
Iface
192.168.1.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
eth0
192.168.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
eth1
192.168.122.0   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
virbr0
169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     U         0 0          0
eth1
0.0.0.0         192.168.1.1     0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0
eth0

without the -n

netstat -r
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt
Iface
192.168.1.0     *               255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
eth0
192.168.0.0     *               255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
eth1
192.168.122.0   *               255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
virbr0
link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U         0 0          0
eth1
default         linksys         0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0
eth0

It's _got_ to be something to do with the default router, but it appears
perfect.
