3:48 p.m.
I'm trying to get NAT networking working with libvirt/virtual-manager and
KVM on Mandriva Linux.
I installed dnsmasq (and disabled the init script, as libvirt starts up
dnsmasq manually), bridge-utils, and added MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes to /etc/
sysconfig/ifcfg-virbr0, otherwise Mandriva's network scripts would
immediately try to get an IP on virbr0 with DHCP, removing the correct IP
address set by libvirt on its activation.
So currently I have:
# virsh net-list --all
Name State Autostart
-----------------------------------------
default active yes
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
pan0 8000.000000000000 no
virbr0 8000.000000000000 yes
# ifconfig

However, I still fail to get an IP address in my virtual machine.
In the logs, I cannot find anything problematic at first sight, libvirtd
when ran with the verbose option, continuously gives this:

Any idea what is wrong or what I should check to debug this further?
