Hi all,

got the recommendation from the freenode xen IRC channel to open a
ticket here. Hoping that's ok.

Problem:

I want to provide a second bridge to a HVM Linux DomU. But as soon as I
add this to the DomU config file the DomU doesn't start and the qemu log
file does state

*qemu-system-i386: -device
rtl8139,id=nic1,netdev=net1,mac=00:16:3e:35:af:af: xen: failed to
populate ram at 1100c0000* (same with e1000)

Providing only one bridge does work fine. Since I couldn't find anything
meaningful to me on the Internet I'm asking here. Any help is highly
appreciated.
