I am using the custom vif names now inside domU config. However while
booting up and shutting down domU, i see this inside /var/log/messages in
dom0

Jan  6 18:54:20 xen net.agent[8922]: remove event not handled

Jan  6 18:54:36 xen hald[4869]: Timed out waiting for hotplug event 1148.
Rebasing to 1149
Jan  6 18:54:37 xen hal.hotplug[9720]: timout(10000 ms) waiting for
/class/net/vif3.0

This is the third time a domU has been booted on this machine so i can
understand the vif3.0, however i have put a custom name for the vifname as
vm01.

ifconfig from dom0
