Greetings Sheng,

So I updated my FC11 Host to kernel v2.6.30-rc3 (and enabled ext4 of
course) and rebuilt the kvm-85 source kernel module and
qemu-system-x86_64 and I am now able to get dhcp and IP ops from the
02:00.0 device on my IOH-5520 board with the KVM guest using a v2.6.29.2
kernel!!  Everything is looking good with the v2.6.29.2, but after a
quick reboot back into my v2.6.30-rc3 KVM guest kernel build e1000e it
looks like I am unable to get dhcp.

Rebooting back into KVM Guest kernel v2.6.29.2 brings the pci-stub
assigned e1000e 82574L assigned with dhcp and everything looks
good!  :-)

I will keep poking at the v2.6.30-rc KVM guests (I am going to do a
complete rebuild) and see if it does not start move IP packets as well..

Thanks for all of your help in getting setup!
