Hi, I'm running a 2.6.22.10 host with 2.6.23 guest. Both are Slackware. I'm trying to use udev in the guest and it works apart from the fact I can't get networking to work in the guest. I'm using tun/tap with the uml_net helper but I get the same problem if I do the set up of the tap0 device myself using tunctl.
If I don't use udev in the guest, I start the guest with eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.1.50 and in the guest eth0 comes up with its assigned ip of 192.168.1.51. Using udev, the tap0 interface doesn't come up on the host and in the guest I get device not found from "ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.51 up". What I have found is that in /proc/net/dev on the guest I have a device eth17. Next time I boot the guest it will be eth18 and so on. Any ideas why this happens and what I can do to fix it. Thanks, Dave. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.
