Looks like it will save me a lot of work in not having to re-boot all of the time. My host machine is a Linux Mandrake 10.0 version and I have installed the QEMU along with reading over the documentation as well. I try to run "qemu-fast -user-net linux.img" after downloading the linux.img file from http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/ The problem is that even though I have made the TUN device like mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200 add the proper alias to the /etc/modules.conf echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward QEMU cannot seem to find the ethernet connection when the linux.img boots. Not sure what is happening here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lonnie
