Yeah, seems to be for the NIC.

Ditto.

D'oh, I should have known that ;). It's not able to mount root. One 
thing it says on IDE init is:

ata_set_feature: (0x66,0x0) failed

Then lots of 'timeout: reset bus, target=0, lun=0' and other warnings 
with:

Error for command 'read sector' Error Level: informational
Sense Key: aborted command
Vendor 'Gen-ATA' error code: 0x3

SNV as guest.

32bit Qemu.

Without.

I had installed it with qemu from a few weeks ago (or maybe 0.8.2 
release - sorry, can't remember). Something very recent in CVS seems 
to have broken booting it.

There shouldn't be any difference between install and boot really. 
I'm using a raw block device as Qemu 'hda'.

I'll try dig further.
