RE: [Xen-users] Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected.Hotplugscripts not working

[Mike Viau <viaum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am using udev 0.125-7+lenny3 with a xenified 2.6.31.12 kernel. I was getting "Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected.Hotplugscripts not working" initially, but by using the .config provided thankfully by Boris (bderzhavets@xxxxxxxxx) with the exact same setup, the error went away.

I see you are using the PV OPS kernel though......
