[opensuse] QEMU and accessing the local network

I am trying to get qemu on openSUSE 11.2 to access the local network. It
needs to do this when booting the OS (a variant of openSUSE built with
KIWI - boots over PXE and is diskless, using AoE to access the root
partition - it needs the network to boot).

I get to the point where the guest OS wants to do something over the
network. It has things set up to use qemu's private network, which is
not what I need.

I was looking at this for some help:

http://people.redhat.com/berrange/olpc/sdk/network-bridge.html

This seems to be describing what I want to accomplish. I have dnsmasq
and vde installed. But I cannot find anything called qemu-network. I am
guessing it is a Red Hat thing. Is there perhaps a counterpart for
openSUSE? Or am I going about this in the wrong way?

I need the guest OS to use it's own MAC address, and to pass all things
to the local network. I think this is a bridged setup.


Yours sincerely,

Roger Oberholtzer
