Bridging network devices can be a pain and extremely error prone, here are some steps to fix a network bridge when trying to boot a Virtual Device (i.e. via VMware, VirtualBox, Xen, OpenVZ, etc)...[1]
Bridge Control (show all bridges/interfaces):
brctl show
If no interface is attached to the desired Bridge, then...
Change Directory to Network Scripts folder:
cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
Manually edit the "ifcfg-em1" network configuration file:
nano ifcfg-em1
Manually edit the "ifcfg-br0" bridge configuration file:
nano ifcfg-br0
Change Directory to the init.d folder
cd /etc/init.d/
Manually restart the Network connection:
./network restart
Bridge Control - Add InterFace
brctl addif <device> <bridge>
brctl addif br0 em1
Show bridges again:
brctl show
