Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kvm

I was running a kvm host with 5 virtual machines using jaunty. 1 running
centos 5.4, 3 running karmic and 1 running hardy.

I upgraded the host to karmic to test it and one of my virtual
machines(the vm with hardy) crashs after some seconds of boot! I stack
traced the kvm process and found a "virtio-net truncating packet" before
process crash.

No error in any log file. The VM just crash.

I changed the model of network interface(the disk is still virtio) in
VM.xml to rtl8139, redefined and started. The problem goes away.

I don't know if it's a kvm bug or libvirt(regarding the bridge network)
bug but definitely is a bug. All other VMs are running OK with virtio
for both network and disk.
