[ovs-discuss] VM doesn't power on after open vswitch installation

Can you answer the rest of the questions I asked?  Are you generating your own RPM?  If not, are you using the scripts in "xenserver"?

Also, can you send us the contents of ovs-vswitchd.conf before and after you start the VM?  Are you running bridge compatibility (ie, ovs-brcompatd and the bridge kernel module)?
