[Qemu-devel] Debian 3.0 Problems

[Qemu-devel] Debian 3.0 Problems

[list-qemu]

Hello,

I installed Debian 3.0r2 under Qemu.  However, I have the following
problems:

1. During boot I get the message:

modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-10-135

2. During boot and at random times I get the message:

probable hardware bug: clock timer configuration lost - probably a
VIA686a.
probable hardware bug: restoring chip configuration.

Sometime it appears many times, sometimes not so many.

3. Can't get network working at all.  I'm running a fully updated Fedora
Core 1.  /dev/net/tun exists.  I put the qemu-ifup script in /etc.  I
also tried the instructions on
http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/networking.html.  Nothing works. 
Qemu always reports:

warning: could not open /dev/net/tun: no virtual network emulation

Thanks.

make sure the tun module on the Host system is loaded
(or configured for autoload on /dev/net/tun request)
and check if the device entry in /dev/net is present
(if you do not use devfs or udev)

Thanks for the response, but I have that fixed (I'll post something
informative in the near future).  Anyone have any ideas on the other?
