Xen users - Jun 2011 - Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working

Hi

I have upgraded my Dom0 from lenny to sqeeze and xen to 4.0
after that there were some errors when i tried to reboot, but i could 
fix most of them

my dom0 is running fine now, but when i try to start a guest, i get an 
error:

darwin:/# xm create infopool.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/infopool.cfg".
Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.

i tried many things to get around this, but none did work.
can anybody help me?

*infopool.cfg:*
kernel  = ''/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-xen-686''
ramdisk = ''/boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-xen-686''

extra = ''console=hvc0 xencons=tty independent_wallclock=1''
root    = ''/dev/sda1 ro''
disk    = [ ''file:/var/xen/domains/infopool/disk.img,sda1,w'', 
''file:/var/xen/domains/infopool/swap.img,sda2,w'' ]
name    = ''infopool''
vif  = [''bridge=eth2,mac=00:16:3e:00:00:01'']
on_poweroff = ''destroy''
on_reboot   = ''restart''
on_crash    = ''restart''
