Hi all

I try to use ovs-vswitchd without kernel mode.
And I build the src following the [Building and installation
instructions<http://openvswitch.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=openvswitch;a=blob_plain;f=INSTALL.Linux;hb=HEAD>
].
But when I try to run the ovs-vswitchd, it shows the message like follow:

[root at XXX sbin]# ovs-vswitchd ovs-vswitchd.conf
Dec 10 17:23:33|00001|cfg|INFO|using "ovs-vswitchd.conf" as configuration
file, ".ovs-vswitchd.conf.~lock~" as lock file

Dec 10 17:23:36|00517|bridge|ERR|failed to create datapath netdev:br0: No

I think I did something wrong with installation.
Can anyone give me some advices?

Thanks a lot.
