Guest have driver for the assigned NIC ( If not originally, I installed the
driver), but network in guest breaks down. Sorry for unclear description, and I
modified the bug title. It shows NIC has driver, but network breaks down, for
example guest cannot get IP from the DHCP server. If using kvm.git commit
e62c2ef9, it doesn't have this issue. I use the same win2k8 and Vista image in
my test.
BTW, even if I use e1000 NIC, Win2k8 and Vista guest's network is bad, while
Win7 and Win XP works well.
