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......
