Hi,

I tried with qemu 360/720/1440/2880KiB images. It's possible to boot
RedBoot[FLOPPY] with those standard images. I wrote also a memo for
myself by the topic: http://tickling.bitbucket.org/ecosonqemu.txt I do
not use tun/tap, just Qemu's CL options to manage virtual network
Also, I use pseudo-tty and minicom as well to iteract with RedBoot.
