If you install dnsmasq it should all work as expected > I'm very surprised. dnsmasq is not listed in the dependencies of libvirt as far as I know. I was guessing that it's a "nice to have" package, to enable DHCP IP distribution to guests. But even if it doesn't exist, I shall normally be able to assign static IP addresses manually to my guests. So if the system crashes due to dnsmasq, I would call it a bug instead. Nevertheless, I'll try to compile this package for our distro and see what happens. I'll keep you posted, thanks again a lot for your interest. -- Emre
