One for the techies.

I'm running a Linux i386 Debian guest in QEMU but QEMU doesn't have shared networking by default.

The easiest ( Linux way ) solution would be to create a TUN/TAP device and bridge it to my eth0 or eth1
but brctrl doesn't seem to exist until OS X Lion ?

I found the TUN/TAP device drivers here http://tuntaposx.sourceforge.net/download.xhtml

Anybody got a clue ?

Basically I need to be able to SFTP/SCP the rest of my configuration from the host to the guest.

Also looked a attaching an USB host device to QEMU but no luck yet.

FreeBSD has perfect TUN/TAP support but I can't QEMU to show a console in the text console ( not X/X11).

Or should I just reinstall a PPC Linux and try there with QEMU ?
