Hi,
I'm on latest master, w/ Eric's block-commit patches applied
===========================================================
[kashyap@moon libvirt-k]$ git status
# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 2 commits.
#
nothing to commit (working directory clean)
[kashyap@moon libvirt-k]$
===========================================================
[kashyap@moon libvirt-k]$ # ./autogen.sh ; make -j5 ; make check
===========================================================
Now, then define an xml [see complete xml at the bottom]
#-----------------------------------------------------------#
[kashyap@moon libvirt-k]$ ./run ./tools/virsh define /var/tmp/f17-base.xml
Domain f17-base defined from /var/tmp/f17-base.xml
#-----------------------------------------------------------#
Try to start the guest now:
#-----------------------------------------------------------#
[kashyap@moon libvirt-k]$ ./run ./tools/virsh start f17-base
error: Failed to start domain f17-base
error: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: char device

Other notes: Rich Jones suggested me to do a build dep for qemu & re-try
[kashyap@moon qemu]$ yum-builddep qemu
[kashyap@moon qemu]$ ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu --disable-werror ; make -j5
and re-configure qemu.
And still no dice, I see the same 'bridge' could not be initialized
Any hints here?
