But the UML kernel is a patched version of your normal kernel, so a
standard distribution can't be used - this isn't quite like VMware,
which provides a virtual machine below your OS. Bochs is a potential
freeware method of achieving a virtual machine, but speed is a serious
issue.

Is anyone here using UML? I've wanted to have a server with different
user-spaces in it for a while, and UML sounds like a good way to give
people root access to their own machines ... better than chrooting :-)
