   Yes, I did -- see my reply to your mail.

   After I sent the last email, I realised that one aspect of my
system was unusual. It turns out that something -- I haven't worked
out what yet (probably xend) -- requires and assumes the existence of
eth0. I normally have my "eth0" device renamed to "wired", and my
"eth1" device to "wireless". If I boot the machine without using
nameif to change the device names, then the Xen route scripts allow a
domU to start, and I can then configure the networking manually.

   Hugo.
