Ok,

Here's a working VM config;

kernel          = '/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-prep'
ramdisk         = '/boot/initrd.img-2.6.21-prep'
root            = '/dev/hda1 ro'
disk            = [ 'phy:/dev/imagesb/dns1,hda1,w', 
'phy:/dev/swapsb/dns1_swap,hda2,w' ]
vif             = [ 'ip=<private 
IP>,mac=00:00:10:00:00:0A,bridge=eth0','ip=<public 
IP>,mac=00:00:10:00:01:0A,bridge=eth1' ]
on_poweroff     = 'destroy'
on_reboot       = 'restart'
on_crash        = 'restart'
serial_device   = 'xvc0'
name            = 'dns1'
memory          = '400'
vcpus           = '1'

This one runs over AoE and LVM ... on a host with a private and public 
interface ..

Hi again,

... and more importantly...

what about the conf files in the virtual machines?

something like...

vif=[ 'bridge=eth0', 'bridge=eth1' ]

??????'

thank you.
