RE: [Xen-users] Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working

Confirmed,

 

Exact same issue on 32bit.  I don’t think you can use lenny without udev being installed??

I would guess udev is installed, but 2.6.31.X  kernel is to high for this udev.
It doesn't happen on Jaunty&Karmic Servers (9.04, 9.10)

Boris.
P.S. Just a guess.

Does "xm log" have more details about the error? Do you have udev installed in dom0?

What's your udev version?
