Any reason why there are multiple posts indicating that this actually
fixes a problem?
My onboard nic on this machine is:
*-network
description: Ethernet interface
product: 82562EZ 10/100 Ethernet Controller
vendor: Intel Corporation
and if I try anything other than the PCnet-FAST III (or II) nothing works:
$ uname -r
2.6.24-24-generic
[Linux Unbutu 8.04.2]
Guest = Win2KPro Win2KServer
Vbox = 2..2.0
So those suggesting Intel PRO/1000 might want to: 1) provide a
reference ticket/bug report showing how/why that works for them, and 2)
provide some additional information on their system hardware + host &
guest.
