when using the -net option, one can specify a number of options using a 
comma separated list. the first word is network type to configure, such 
as nic, tap, socket, etc. you specified tap0 as that first word and qemu 
does not have a network handler named tap0. what you probably mean to do 
is use something like '-net tap,ifname=tap0' which specifics qemu should 
use the tap network handler and should use the tap device named tap0.
