Pkg xen devel - Jul 2010 - Bug#588594: xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64: (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working

Package: xen-hypervisor-4.0-amd64
Version: 4.0.1~rc3-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I upgrade one server from lenny to squeeze, to start testing xen-hypervisor-3.4
and xen-hypervisor-4.0, but it seems to don't work.

The error :
xm create -c /etc/xen/slhoka.cfg 
Using config file "/etc/xen/slhoka.cfg".
Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.

The error occur a long time (about 100 seconds) after creating the DomU.
>From what I read on the xen mailing-list, there is an incompatility with
udev versions higher than 151 (and squeeze ship the version 158). But I
don't know if there is a workaround.
Note I use a pvops dom0 kernel (from Jeremy's GIT, branch stable-2.6.32)
because the kernel from Debian don't boot at all (no panic, no message, it
just freeze).

Please test the kernel from testing (unstable is broken right now). This
kernel is known to work with udev 158.
