Hi.

I've fixed that problem.

It was pretty easy really.
When I started the UML for the first time, I've got the option to configure a tty \ with a serial line, or whatever it was. However, I did reply Ignore, and there it \
was.

Thanks for insightful comments.

Enjoy the day.

Cheers,

Ole J.

Hi Ole.
I've had this problem, on my setup. I can contribute a few things I had to do to work around the problem. They may work for you. I think the problem
is to do with devfs.
Check you have something like this in your /etc/fstab (in the UML):
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
Check you have an entry in /etc/inittab (in the UML) like this:
co:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty  --noclear vc/0
(remove the other mingetty lines).
If you are getting devfs problems, make sure your UML is set up correctly:
cd /dev
for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do mknod ubd$i b 98 $i; done
chmod 660 ubd*
chgrp disk ubd*
Regards, Peter
