Xen devel - Jul 2013 - Failed to startup E1000 vNIC.

Hi,     I am tring to start an guest OS on Xen-4.2.2 with:       
vif=['type=ioemu, mac=xx, bridge=xx, model=e1000]Unfortunately, the NIC on
the guest failed to work, with warning messages about EEPROM checksum error. The
debug information shows that the first two bytes of EEPROM is right while the
following data was wrong.     However, when I choose the model to be
"rtl8139", the guest NIC works well. What's more, the same guest
also works well on the KVM with mode being "e1000".     Hope someone
working on vNIC can provide some help.Regards,Yi
