Yes. 'brctl show' matches with vif. This error seems to be related to the deviceid '0' that I'm using for my disk. The xend.log file shows the following details about the error.

Subject: [Xen-users] OpenSolaris domU on RedHat Linux dom0

Hi,

I'm trying to create OpenSolaris (2008.11) domU on RedHat Linux dom0. I'm
using a file backed VBD. I used the iso image to first launch and install
OpenSolaris into the file VBD. Once that process is complete, I'm trying
to run it using the config file below:

name    = 'opensolaris'
vcpus   = 1
memory  = "512"
vif     = ['bridge=br0']
ip = "10.226.33.98"
netmask = "255.255.255.0"
gateway = "10.226.33.1"
disk    = [ 'file:/Application/xen/images/opensolaris_2008_11.disk,0,w' ]
kernel  = '/boot/osol/kernel.opensolaris'
ramdisk = '/boot/osol/ramdisk.opensolaris'
extra   = '/platform/i86xpv/kernel/unix -B
zfs-bootfs=rpool/54,bootpath=/xpvd/xdf@0:a'




When I do that, I get an error message like this.

Unable to find number for device (0)

Can someone please help me debug this problem?

Thanks,
Viswanath
