Thursday April 03, 2008 Workaround for VBox-Indiana Nic Issue
In my earlier entry, I posted an issue with using Indiana Preview2 as guest OS with VirtualBox due to pcn driver restrictions. The network gets disabled. Alan shows you how you can get an open source driver alternative that works just great. But why the pain? You can use VirtualBox's multiple NIC simulation feature to simulate a different and supported type.
Under Settings > Network, choose Intel PRO/1000 adapter type to simulate a e1000g0 driver in Indiana instead of the default PCnet type. And you are done.
