Hi folks,
Please post kvm issues to the kvm mailing list.
I am trying to run Solaris 10u8 as a guest in kvm (kernel 2.6.33.2). Problem: The virtual network devices don't work with this Solaris version. e1000 and pcnet work just by chance, as it seems. I can ping the guest (even though some packets are lost). I cannot use ssh to login. rtl8139 and ne2k_pci are not even listed by "ifconfig -a" on the guest. Solaris 10u6 worked fine (using the e1000 emulation). Same for the Linux guests. Can anybody reproduce this problem? Any helpful comment would be highly appreciated. Of course I would be glad to help to track this down.
Does opensolaris exhibit the the same problems? If so, you can probably bisect the driver to find the change that broke the device. With that we can probably deduce if it is the device or driver that is broken, and what the issue is.
