[Qemu-devel] Running DragonFlyBSD on qemu, network device problems.

[Miguel Filipe]

Hi there,

I'm running dragonflyBSD on a qemu virtual PC on top of linux.
Instalation went fine.

Configuring the ethernet is the problem:
1 - dhclient ed0 gives no valid address 
1.a - when using tun0 for the ethernet interface to qemu
       dhclient results in the following kernel error/warning message:

 - acording to qemu docs, the network interface is a ne2000 pci 

1.b - when using qemu with -user-net the error doesn't occurr..

2 - how should one set-up a lan between the host OS (linux) and the
guest OS in qemu (dragonflyBSD) ?

I cannot send the dmesg or any other dragonfly info since I can't
access it besides the console, and I cannot copy&paste it.

TIA.

I've tried putting a dhcp server on the host OS running in the tun0
device and trying dhclient on dragonfly, but cannot tell if its ed0
device problems or me being stupid...

tcpdump tells me this:
tun0 is on host machine 10.0.0.254, and dhcpd.conf is configured for
10.0.0.5-10.
miguel@garfield:~/qemu/qemu$ sudo tcpdump  -i tun0
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on tun0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes

those dhcp requests are from dragonflybsd...
Still dragonfly gets NO IP.
