NAT in Ubuntu VM

I'm excited about this product, but a little frustrated by the documentation right now.

I downloaded the Ubuntu server VM and it launched, but I can't get the networking to work. This would appear to be because the VM only shows an eth1 but OS X is only aware of an eth0.

I've got the VM networking set to NAT, and tried turning on the built-in Sharing (set to share the airport connection with "built in ethernet") but it didn't work.

I'm guessing this is something to do with the hardware that was defined on the VM I downloaded, but I don't really know.

Any way to get this working? Perhaps all I can do for now is to build a new VM for Ubuntu myself?

Never mind; looks like it's a problem with the VM.
