have  not tested with full up thnx yet. I am going to pull down a
release 2.6.25 and make sure it still works with that.

contrib/rminnich/lguest/lg25.tgz
sample linux config file there too.
Also my current 9lguestcpu kernel, 9lguestcpu.2.6.25.elf


to make: tar file includes bin/rc/lguest, to set up paths.
I boot a qemu image and bulid from there, but
cd
tar xvf lg25.tgz
mkdir -p src/ip src/boot src/port src/pc
lguest
cd src/lguest25
mk

and away you go.

My current command line is this:
./Documentation/lguest/lguest    784 /tmp/9lguestcpu.elf
--tunnet=192.168.19.1  \
--block=/u3/thx9.img  \
'venti=#S/sd00/arenas;bootdisk=local!#S/sd00/fossil;bootargs=local!#S/sd00/fossil'


I welcome comments on improving the code. To some extent I'm still
getting a handle on how to set this all up.

Disk IO is not great, net IO seems pretty good. I don't have a stable
timebase on lguest, evidently, or I would run netpipe to test.
