Re: [PATCH][yocto-docs] dev-manual-qemu.xml: Add kvm-vhost option.

["Aníbal Limón" <anibal.limon@linux.intel.com>]

Hi Scott,

Your changes looks good thanks but i forget to move this line to kvm-vhost:

	Your build host has to have virtio net device, which are /dev/vhost-net.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Sending another patch...

Best regards,
	alimon
