It's obvious that some config changes are needed to move from testing
to unstable. Is this documented anywhere?
I diff'd the docs dir in the xen-testing and xen-unstable branches and
the only change of note is Stefano's
xen-unstable.hg/docs/misc/console.txt doc.
Is there a wiki/README/man page on what a user needs to fix after
upgrading to unstable?

Aside from obvious things like xencommons and xend needing to be
manually started, what else is there?

I do have a bridge still: (that was one of the complaints I saw from some users)
#> brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
eth0            8000.002481e8a51c       no              peth0

Here's the error I'm getting trying to start an Ubuntu pv-ops VM that
was working fine with testing:

xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory
#> Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.

The README isn't exaclty helpful :-)
