And the answer is .... yes! I tried actually following the
instructions and it worked. I realized that since in your command line
you're telling qemu to emulate a realtek nic that's where the rl10
comes from.

So I'm past the Network Install phase and we're now finalizing the
install. :)

BTW, I forgot to mention that I'm using qemu-devel, and so far I
haven't installed kqemu since I've read some messages where people
have had problems with it recently on -current.

Couple more quick questions, is there some middle ground between size
of the default window that pops up when I run the command line you
supplied and full screen mode? This window is fine for the
installation since it's just a little bigger than my typical terminal
window, but I'd like something larger to do actual work on. Glancing
through the man page it seems like perhaps -std-vga might be the ticket?

Finally it looks to me like I'll need to set up samba on the host if I
want the XP guest to have access to files that are not in the image,
correct? The man page mentions the -smb option for the user mode
network stack, will that work for tap too?
