Created attachment 403288 [details] My guest configuration. Description of problem: When trying to boot from network (PXE) using current virt-preview repository on Fedora 12 it says, that I am trying to boot from non-existent NIC.

Starts booting from PXE but DHCP doesn't work. I don't see any bootps traffic on br0. If I interrupt PXE boot with Ctrl-B, "dhcp net0" from gPXE command line works.
