I had the same problems with 10.1 and sheep_net (Ping, and dns worked,
but no tcp sockets).

I just installed a dhcpd and set up to use the tun method, and that was
fine.

Everything is working fairly well.

Is it possible to boot off a .dmg ?

I tried in linux:
losetup /dev/loop0 disk.dmg

and: /etc/mol/molrc.osx
               blkdev:         /dev/loop0      -cd -boot


This is what I get... 

Disk /dev/loop1                          <read-only>   620 MB BOOT
Disk /dev/hda12                          <read-write> 3000 MB
