I am trying to build a root_fs with rootstrap. Yet rootstrap gets stuck after
Mounted devfs on /dev and nothing seems to happen. All the processes seems to be sleeping. Pinging the tap0 interface works but not the uml side of the connection. No network traffic seems to take place, which is why I believe this is not a firewall issue. Any hints or URLs? What should occur after the mounting of the devfs? The rootstrap command was run from a screen session. This should make no difference, doesn't it? :::::::::::::: rootstrap.conf :::::::::::::: [global] fstype=ext2 initialsize=256 freespace=10 modules=network mkfs mount debian uml umount PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin [network] hostname=rootstrap interface=eth0 transport=daemon uml=192.168.1.22 netmask=255.255.255.252 control=/var/run/uml-utilities/uml_switch.ctl data=/var/run/uml-utilities/uml_switch.data gateway=192.168.1.21 nameserver=192.114.47.4 [debian] dist=woody mirror=http://http.us.debian.org/debian exclude=pcmcia-cs setserial purge=base-config console-common console-tools console-data console-tools-libs minstall=ssh [uml] install_modules=yes :::::::::::::: rootstrapLog :::::::::::::: Checking for the skas3 patch in the host...not found Checking for /proc/mm...not found Linux version 2.4.22-5um ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerel ease)) #1 Fri Sep 19 21:36:03 EDT 2003 On node 0 totalpages: 8192 zone(0): 8192 pages. zone(1): 0 pages. zone(2): 0 pages.
