This is the second release of network drivers for Windows guests running on a kvm host. The drivers are intended for Windows 2000 and Windows XP, and Windows 2003. Both x86 and x64 variants are provided. kvm-61 or later is needed in the host. At the moment only binaries are available.
The drivers are available from the download page of the kvm website, below. To use, download the drivers into the guest (using one of the emulated network cards), and unpack the package. Reboot with '-net nic,model=virtio' instead of the usual setting, and when Windows prompts you for a driver location, select the appropriate directory in the package (Windows XP or Windows 2000). Changes from kvm-guest-drivers-windows-1: - smp support (Yan Vugenfirer) - x64 support (Yan Vugenfirer) - prepare for open-sourcing (Yan Vugenfirer) Note: Windows 2003 is supported using the Windows XP drivers. http://kvm.qumranet.com/ -- Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
