[Bug 580454] Re: libvirt 'ethernet' or 'bridge' interface machines won't start.

[Neil Wilson]

Ok. The bridge stuff is working, but 'raw ethernet' isn't.

Run:

sudo vmbuilder kvm ubuntu -v -m 256 --swapsize 256 --domain
vm.brightbox.net --addpkg=openssh-server --hostname=test1
--mac=02:24:19:01:00:01 --libvirt=qemu:///system --bridge=virbr1

virsh edit test1 and alter the interface specification to:

    <interface type='ethernet'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:4a:ca:ae'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
    </interface>

then do

virsh start test1

and you get an error:

neil at acer-aspire-5536:~$ virsh start test1
error: Failed to start domain test1
error: monitor socket did not show up.: Connection refused
