[Qemu-devel] Downloaded files are corrupt

[Aaron McDonald]

I'm having a problem downloading files. I'm using qemu 0.6.1 to run Feather 
Linux from within Alt Linux on a 800 MHtz machine with 256MB of RAM.

qemu -hda harddisk -cdrom feather-0.6.1.iso -boot d -m 256 -enable-audio 
-user-net -localtime

Everything starts up ok but if I download something from the internet, I 
don't seem to get the last byte and so the file is corrupt. I have the same 
issue with a Damn Small Linux iso.

I can download the file just fine from my host OS (Alt Linux) so I'm ruling 
out a network issue. Also, I'm having the same problem when using Windows 
2000 as the host OS on a 2.6 GHtz machine with 1GB of RAM so I'm thinking 
that it's not a hardware issue either.

I posted this issue to the bulletin board a couple of days ago. Another user 
responded and said that he'd had the same problem w/ qemu >0.6.0 running 
debian/knoppix under Win XP (host) with "-user-net".

Thanks,
Aaron
