Well, basically put all options you had in config_eth0, routes_eth0, ... into
config_br0, routes_br0 and so on.
in your case its prolly config_br0=("dhcp").
don't forget to rc-config add net.br0 after creating a net.br0->net.lo
symlink in /etc/init.d
the bridge "inherits" the MAC of the first eth device attached, so the dhcp
client should be able to get the IP config just fine.
for the xen config: I havn't disabled the network / bridging scripts there,
those are smart enough to not foobar the config when the bridge in question
is already up. Not sure if there's a problem in disabling them.
I haven't found any usefull documentation for Xen/Gentoo yet, but also didn't
have a reason to look for one.
I've basically choosen that way cause my desktop box, where I tried xen first,
already had a bridge fully configured and running for use with bluetooth pan,
and I simply reused that bridge for the domU.
