Re: [Qemu-discuss] FreeDOS in qemu: no internet-connection

[Christian]

Hi Peter,

thanks a lot for your response.

I tried  "qemu-system-i386 -m 32M -drive
file=drivec.img,media=disk,format=raw -net nic -net user -drive
file=FD12CD.iso,media=cdrom -boot order=d"
but it ditn´t work either.
After boot FreeDOS still says: "Error: Your ethernet card reported an
error for every packet we sent."

And "info network" says:

hub0
\hub0port1: user.0: index=0,type=user,net=10.0.2.0,restrict=off
\hub0port0: e100.0: index=0,type=nic,model=e1000,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56

So I have one added line, but that doesn´t help either. But shouldn´t it
work now?

Besides there´s still one thing I cannot understand: Why does  e.g.
KNOPPIX work without any problems at all (as far as internet connection
is concerned)?

Greetings
Rosika
