no tap0 device available while `tun' module loaded.
While attempting to install debian within a uml setup, I've
encountered problems with networking. I've narrowed the problem down
to a missing tap0 interface on the host (the uml is fine). The tun
module is loaded (according to lsmod). This kernel supports the tun
device (CONFIG_TUN=m).
ifconfig -a doesn't show a tun device (just lo and eth0).
I suppose this is the biggest reason ifconfig isn't listing the
module. Are there module parameters required? I've reviewed the docs
from Documentation/network/tuntap.txt, and some googling, but answers
are scarce and/or vague.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Scott Edwards
