I just installed a rawhide installation as a XEN guest today on a
updated FC5 dom0 with xen-3.0.2-3.FC5 and kernel
2.6.17-1.2139_FC5xen0.
But after installing and booting a couple of times I get this error
message:
Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.
A boot clears the problem, so I guess it is some kind of resources that
isn't cleaned up, probably related to (virtual) interfaces. All guests
are LVM-backed so it's not loop devices that's exhausted.
