Really?

I don't know about other distros, but when it comes to RHEL/Centos and
Xen 3.1+/3.3/3.4, the cause is usually udev is dead. At least that
what happens to me a couple of times. I haven't find out WHY udev is
dead though, and since I haven't had it in several months I assume one
of the updates has fixed it.

Another usual cause is putting in a wrong bridge name, but that one
gives a clear error message on xend.log so it's easier to solve.
