Another particularity: the xen bridge used is named eth0. I don't
understand this choice as using a xenbrX seems to be quite a reasonable
"standard" in Xen. Making it with a different name means that any
userland script for the general audience of Xen users concerning the Xen
bridge will need adaptation...

That threw me somewhat when I built a server with Lenny, having previously used Etch. Took me ages to get the networking working :-(
