Re: [9fans] err 2: arena creation time after last write time

[Ronald G Minnich <rminnich@lanl.gov>]

here's how I run qemu so as to get things going. This allows me to 
drawterm into it.

qemu qemu.vesaroot &

Gets me a cpu kernel going

sleep 5 && dhcpd -d

gets me the dhcpd

a run looks like this:

[root@q plan9]# qemu qemu.vesaroot & sleep 5&& dhcpd -d

(note the DHCPREQUEST -- that's my plan 9)
(the error message is unimportant)

OK, what's the config look like? dhcpd.conf:
subnet 172.20.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
               range 172.20.0.2 172.20.0.2 ;
               default-lease-time 600;
                  max-lease-time 7200;
               option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
                 option routers 172.20.0.1;
             }
host qemu {
         hardware ethernet 52:54:00:12:34:56;
         fixed-address xtest;
}

xtest is (from /etc/hosts):
172.20.0.2 xtest


ok but how did tun1 get configured? You need to set up /etc/qemu-ifup

[root@q etc]# cat /etc/qemu-ifup
#!/bin/sh
tun=$1
sudo /sbin/ifconfig $1 172.20.0.1
sudo /sbin/iptables -N nat
sudo /sbin/iptables -t nat -F
sudo /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 172.20.0.1 -j MASQUERADE
sudo /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -d 172.20.0.1 -o $tun
sudo echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[root@q etc]#


this allows me to drawterm into the plan 9 cpu server running on my laptop.

If this all works, then put it in the wiki :-) This is on FC4.
