Thanks all I got the latest revision (461) from your repository Bernhard an= d Fredrik's feature compiles correctly. I got a Debian64 VM with 4GB running on BETA4 amd64 with bridge interface working well. I just got a problem after installing the VBoxGuestAdditions-amd64. I rebooted, got on login screen (graphical) in the VM, issued user/pass and the VM aborts. As I noticed VBoxGuestAdditions-amd64 require 2.6.27 and I am running 2.6.26-2, I will align. VBoxGuestAdditions-amd64 installed successfully on 2.6.26-2 though. I will let you know if I still get the same behaviour after Linux kernel upgrade in the VM. Anyway I think I will go for proper CLI access now it is reachable through the bridged interface :-) Thanks again for all contributors !
