If you look at the drop down under 'advanced options' at the end of the new VM
wizard, there should be an option to manually enter a bridge. At least for a
temporary work around.
Didn't bother to try advanced options since "no network"
seemed too final :-). I'll check it next time.
What's the output of
sudo virsh --connect qemu:///system iface-list --all
Name State MAC Address

bifrost active 14:da:e9:72:9e:22

p6p1 active 14:da:e9:72:9e:22
bifrost and br0 are bridges on two different vlans
(one of which has access to my local LAN and the other
of which only has access to the outside world
for use with dangerous browsing :-).
That listing doesn't mention the vlans p6p1.1 and p6p1.3.
