Hi Xen folks,

I have a question where I couldn't find the answer on google or in the archives... I have a statically compiled xenU kernel, and I want a XEN guest with 2 network interfaces. My config looks like this:

name = "myname"
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU"
memory = 256
vif = [ 'bridge=br701', 'bridge=br9' ]
disk = [ 'phy:vg0/myname,hda1,w','phy:vg0/myname_swap,hda2,w' ]
ip="1.2.3.4"
netmask="255.255.255.0"
root = "/dev/hda1 ro"
extra = "2"

Unfortunately the interface order in the (Linux)-Guest seems to be random. This means after booting the guest the IP 1.2.3.4 is assigned to either br701 or br9, but it's always random (both interfaces work in the guest though). If I define mac-addressses for the interfaces there is no difference. Can I somehow "lock" those interfaces? I don't know how. I'd appreciate your help!
