This is a very simple proof-of-concept patch that fakes ICMP well enough
for ping to work.
Basically, when the slirp code gets a ping request for an ip outside of
the
slirp network, it runs /bin/ping and reports the results back to the
guest
accordingly.
Right now it uses vfork() and then exec()
This edition is finally able to construct a real partition table. Still
buggy
(linux fdisk complains about it) but partitions are mountable inside the
VM.
The full syntax is:
qemu -hda
partition:boot=1,bootloader=bootmbr.bin,/dev/hda1,sysid=0xC,partition.raw,sysid=ox82,/dev/sda2,sysid=0x83

snapshot enablable/specifiable COW tmpfiles patch. But
