Re: [MirageOS-devel] Passing tap devices to the main module

[Thomas Gazagnaire <thomas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What I'm guessing in your cryptic error bug report is that you've simply 
replaced the variable tap0 by the variable tap1 in the config.ml. 

However, this file is a normal OCaml program, so it needs to be lexically 
scoped: tap1 is the name of a variable which needs to be created somewhere. The 
tap0 variable is defined in 
https://github.com/mirage/mirage/blob/master/lib/mirage.mli#L209. I think in 
your case you can use (netfif "tap1") instead of tap0.

Best,
Thomas
