=== Installing Debian and libvirt on new hardware ===
 +
 +
Just a few notes. After setting up the basics by adding the hardware address to /etc/dnsmasq.d/pxeboot (see the examples there) and setting up links in /srv/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/ to debian6-autoinstall, pxeboot the machine and wait for the installation to complete. Then, set up bridge configurations like so in /etc/network/interfaces:
 +
auto br0
 +
iface br0 inet dhcp
 +
        bridge_ports eth0
 +
 +
auto br2
 +
iface br2 inet manual
 +
        bridge_ports eth0.2
 +
 +
auto br8
 +
iface br8 inet manual
 +
        bridge_ports eth0.8
 +
 +
In /etc/sysctl.conf:
 +
net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1
 +
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf = 0
 +
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra = 0
