Hi, all, I'm trying to get Debian armhf (jessie) running under qemu-system-arm. It's working OK except for one point.
If I don't specify any nic, QEMU supplies a default which is accepted by Debian. However, when I specify a virtio-net-device (so I can bridge to the host nic), I get no nic. The nic is defined in the QEMU startup with: -netdev bridge,br=bridge0,id=net0,helper=/usr/lib/qemu/qemu-bridge-helper \ -device virtio-net-device,netdev=net0,mac=DE:AD:BE:EF:37:30 \ and the QEMU monitor shows it as: virtio-net-device.0: index=0,type=nic,model=virtio-net-device,macaddr=de:ad:be:ef:37:30 \ net0: index=0,type=tap,helper=/usr/lib/qemu/qemu-bridge-helper,br=bridge0 (bridge0 is the name of the bridge on the host system, and is working correctly). I've added the following to /etc/modules: virtio virtio_ring virtio_blk virtio_net All modules are loaded and show up in lsmod. The only odd thing I see in the syslog at startup are lines indicating eth0 is not found. Am I missing something to get this to work in Debian? Like another driver maybe? I appreciate any help. Jerry
