good news, everyone. ethervirtio seems to work now on go= ogle compute engine in both labs (tested by david) and 9front (tested by me= ). somebody on irc reported that it also works for vultr.com. the driver should work fine in any qe= mu.

=C2=A0only the 386 kernel for labs and 9front were tested, but the 9front a= md64 kernel should work fine too.


i really appreciate the feedback erik gave me, it helped a lot.

=C2=A0although, i still don't know if the driver works in 9atom or not!= it would be nice if somebody could test it in 9atom and report back.

as for gce, there's one last showstopper: the dhcp server is kind of nu= ts. so, ipconfig (maybe ip stack?) needs to be fixed. for posterity here is= what the gce dhcp server gave us:

ipconfig: got ack from 10.240.0.1
ipconfig: lease=3D4294967295
ipconfig: ipaddr=3D10.240.189.103 ipmask=3D255.255.255.255
