This has been discussed upstream, the workaround currently is to explicitly tell qemu to not load any boot roms for the NIC. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/77851/focus=77929 for full thread and the solution. I suggested to stop loading the PXE roms nedlessly - this way it will be possible to not install them, http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/77851/focus=77929 /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
