QEMU has default devices for machine types and is apparently trying to
install an e1000 NIC at guest address 02.0, you either need to disable
these defaults with a '-nodefaults' option, disable the NIC with a '-net
none' option, or place the NIC at a different address by explicitly
defining it and setting the address.  Thanks,
