You can still configure things like a mac address, a different bridge, etc., 
but you need to avoid having the "type=ioemu" parameter in the vif 
configuration.  The line above configures a VIF that auto-generates a MAC 
address each time it boots (not usually a good idea) and connects to the 
default bridge.  Something like this would be acceptable, too:

vif = ['mac=00:11:22:33:44:55,bridge=myBridge']

What you don't want is:

vif = ['mac=00:11:22:33:44:55,bridge=myBridge,type=ioemu']
