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.
