[Fedora-xen] Fedora Core 8 + Xenbr0 + network bridging?

	Fair enough; I certainly can't blame you for not wanting to read
that big long thing. However, while I thank you for this useful piece of
advice, the actual problem is that I don't know what files are causing my
issue, but I am pretty sure they aren't files I modified by hand.  I think
maybe one of the GUI tools changed some file I am not familiar with (or F7
did on account of a change I made in a file I am familiar with).  So  I am
hoping someone could point me toward such a file.  I need to know what could
cause my situation, which I believe is fully described starting at "11)".
Everything prior to that is part of the cause and/or attempts to get rid of
extra bridges.
	Dustin

I don't feel like reading the rest when I can point you at a backup:-)

cd <some sandpit>

rpm2cpio <whatever.rpm | cpio --extract --make-directories

Find and copy the files you want.
