Problem:
I have just noticed that using network virtio on Debian 6 32/64 or Slackware 64, there is problem with network packet length.
When I switch to Intel e1000 nic, it seems to be ok...
Note that this happens only on 2.1 ISO (2.1-f9b0f63a-26 & 2.1-1/f9b0f63a) and not on 2.0 ISO (2.0-57/ff6cd700).


Reproduce:
Code:
local# ssh root@vm1
root@vm1's password: 
vm1# wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.2.2.tar.gz
vm1# tar zxf nginx-1.2.2.tar.gz
vm1# cd nginx-1.2.2/
vm1# ./configure --help
Bad packet length 2426350606.
Disconnecting: Packet corrupt
local#

Similar errors have been noticed using webmin's console and calling same commands.
Also using https on the vm1.

I do not see this on my test machines.

I forgot to mention that this happens to 2.1 ISO (2.1-f9b0f63a-26 & 2.1-1/f9b0f63a) and not on 2.0 ISO (2.0-57/ff6cd700).
