Hi Arpan,

I have changed the network setting earlier problem was with
loopbackdevices now I have changed them to 888 in grub.conf and
/etc/modprobe.conf but still I m not able to start virtual machines
more that 7 at a time I can only start 7 machines. Similar problem I
have faced in past but after inc the number of loop back devices
system started work is their any other place where I have to set this
number ?

check that you actually do have the loop devices.

ls /dev/loop*

losetup -f
losetup -a

Are you sure that the loop module is being loaded properly?

Can you check the output of dmesg and also try running the
modprobe loop max_loop= line manually.

Cheers,
Todd
