Using Nard from VirtualBox with a Direct Ethernet Connection

[Ronny Nilsson]

Hi
I understand better now. The simplest method would be using fixed IP 
addresses. For example, configure Fedora to use 192.168.10.1 and the 
Raspberry 192.168.10.2 There are two caveats though:

1) VirtualBox and Fedroa probably need to use "Bridged" networking
	Menu > Machine > Settings > Network > Adapter 1 > Attached to

2) Setting a fixed IP in Nard can be done in the file
	SD-card/settings/network
	http://www.arbetsmyra.dyndns.org/nard/#devsettingsnet
It's a text file which is easy to understand. You can move the SD-card to your 
PC and edit the file in Windows - but, you need to use a text editor that 
understands Unix text file format. Thus, Notepad won't work. However, the 
free Notepad++ works and probably any text editor designed for real 
programing does.
