Hi,
I'm using libvirt 0.6.2 to create a Xen guest with a network type interface (see XML below). When the guest is defined, the interface is converted to an ethernet type interface. If the guest is started, the interface is then converted to a bridge type interface.
This sounds bad :-) Can you provide the output of 'xm list --long hd_domain' immediately after defining it, and then again immediately after starting the guest.
