Thank's for info. Can you please provide a bit more info on how the host system network should be configured for that? I have tried to add eth0 to the bridge:
BRIDGE_PORTS='eth1 eth0'
Then restarted network and lost inet on the host system (even without starting VirtualBox).
Bridge status with eth0 and eth1 added: br0 bridge id 8000.001731eae0c3 designated root 8000.001731eae0c3 root port 0 path cost 0 max age 20.00 bridge max age 20.00 hello time 2.00 bridge hello time 2.00 forward delay 0.00 bridge forward delay 0.00 ageing time 300.01 hello timer 1.04 tcn timer 0.00 topology change timer 0.00 gc timer 0.04 flags

Try "BOOTPROTO='dhcp'" in ifcfg-br0 and remove the IPADDR line. Then enter "/etc/rc.d/vboxnet start". Make sure that eth0, eth1 and vbox0 are set to IP address 0.0.0.0. You may also need to disable the firewall, it might interfere in some cases.

Thank's for advice, all works right now - with bridge attached to eth0, and eth0 ip set to 0.0.0.0. And even in my VirtualBox, though it has version 1.6.0 My initial error was that I did not want to touch working eth0 and instead wanted to attach bridge to eth1 which is physically connected to nowhere. I was not very confident in this area, but after this task have made a big step forward.
