maybe pxeboot doesnt work in kvm-28

[Peter Skogström]

Hi

I cant get pxeboot to work in kvm-28. I built kvm-28 on ubuntu 7.04
(feisty) and everything has worked great. But when testing pxeboot with:

/usr/local/kvm/bin/qemu -net nic,vlan=0 -net
tap,vlan=0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup2,ifname=foo kvm-stuff/etch.qcow2.img
-boot n


It doesnt work. It boots c instead. But with -no-kvm it works and also a
separate qemu works without trouble. I can file a bug, but it would be
great if some more can test pxe first to confirm the behaviour.

I use pxelinux 3.51 against a debian server (sarge).

qemu-ifup2:

#!/bin/sh
sudo /sbin/ifconfig $1 0.0.0.0 promisc up
sudo /usr/sbin/brctl addif br0 $1

Standard qemu networking with bridge.

regards

//Peter

I was able to reproduce and fix your problem.  Let me know if you have 
any problems with the patch I posted.
