Dragon,

	I'm afraid you've reached the limits of my expertise. What you
have quoted above is an error that needs to be fixed, but I have no clue
on how to fix it. Perhaps it has something to do with the dummy0 device
you also are using. I hope someone with better expertise than me can solve
it for you.
