[uml-user] Invalid argument with tuntap

[Michael H. <mic...@bt...>]

Hi

I've just started playing with UML and have successfully built
Slackware 8.0 on it. Now I'm trying to get the networking up.

My host is a 2.4.17 box, and the UML is 2.4.16-2um.

The tun module is loaded on the host, and I've booted the UML with
eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.3.1

When I come to up the interface in the UML I get the following:

root@darkstar:~# ifconfig eth0 192.168.3.1 up
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument

Any ideas?

Cheers
