The howto I read for Lenny had me run the vserver as Dom0, but that is no longer necessary: both dom0 and domUs can use the same linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-686 image. But you DO need xen-hypervisor-3.2, and not the old 3.0 version. Why doesn't apt do these things for you? Hellifiknow.

/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge start
