[Qemu-devel] Running Qemu ARM using NFS on Windows

[Tieu Ma Dau]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1081 bytes --]

Hi all,
I ran successfully Qemu to simulate ARM system on Linux host with the following command:
./qemu-system-arm -kernel zImage.integratorCP -append "root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.7.1:/mnt/nfsqemu rw ip=192.168.7.2::192.168.7.1:255.255.255.0 " -net nic,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0,script=./qemu-ifup
The content of qemu-ifup script is: 
ifconfig tap0 192.168.7.1

But my project demands me to run this ARM system on Windows host. So I modify a bit the qemu-ifup script as:
ipconfig tap0 192.168.7.1 # "ipconfig" , not "ifconfig"
And the corresponding command on Windows is:
qemu-system-arm -kernel zImage.integrator -append "root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.
168.7.1:/c/cygwin/openpsion rw ip=192.168.7.2::192.168.7.1:255.255.255.0" -net
nic,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0,script=./qemu-ifup

But the error I got is:
tap: Could not open 'tap0'
Could not initialize device 'tap

Do you have any ideas?
Best regards,
Tieu

Hi,

ipconfig has a different syntax than ifconfig.
You'll need to get a TAP driver for windows. You can get it from:

http://openvpn.net/download.html

I'm using 2.0.5, so 2.0.7 (current version) will probably work too. You 
don't need the complete OpenVPN package - during installation you 
probably should uncheck every component except TAP/Win32.
After installation you may need to run

c:\Program Files\OpenVPN\bin\addtap.bat

(if you installed openvpn in the default location). This will create a 
new device, called Local Area Connection 5 or so. You should rename it 
for convenience to tap0. Then just run QEMU without the script param, 
e.g. -net tap,vlan=0,ifname=tap0 .

Of course before the connection will be usable you'll need to set up IP 
addresses or DHCP or ICS for the tap device and in the guest OS.

Hope this helps,
