[uml-devel] FC4 rootfs - crash
Hi, I'm using UML 2.6.19.2 on a 2.6.19-skas3 host, and observing the following when I try booting with a root fs based on FC4/glibc- 2.6-20. UML gets stuck with a 'Warning: unable to open an initial console'. gdb shows that it's because it gets a stream of infinite segfaults. When I boot off another rootfs and try to chroot into the one with FC4, it segfaults out. strace shows that this happens just after libc is ldopened.. at a call to rt_sigprocmask. So I tried regressing glibc, and now (with glibc-2.6.3) chroot works, but UML still gets stuck at the same place when I try to boot. Sapan - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[uml-devel] [PATCH] skas3 update for linux 2.6.20-rc5
Between 2.6.19 and 2.6.20, an #else clause was added to the #ifdef !__ASSEMBLY__ in arch/i386/desc.h. This results in the skas3 patch inserting a declaration into the assembly portion of the file. This is fixed by moving the declaration back into the proper branch of the #ifdef.

[uml-devel] I met a question in building the root_fs of UML
Hi wstearns, I now use the UML to do my jobs. However, it is my first time to use the system, and met a problem in building my own root_fs. I downloaded the scripts in http://www.stearns.org/mkrootfs/ and run the commands # ./mkrootfs It run not very well but finially finished and got a file 'root_fs'. I booted the UML using the file. # linux ubd0=root_fs It was so pity that it didn't work and said: Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. How to do next? Could you give me some advices?

I'll make the slides, with notes available - that will approximate the talk if you stand in the front of a room and read them out loud with the slides on a screen behind you. > Your abstract mentions KVM needs to support paravirtualzation first - do > Ingo's patches provide what you need: > > http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=31355873&forum_id=50582 No, that seems to be just memory management stuff. What I need is much simpler - VMCALL needs to be acceptable as a VMEXIT reason and returned from the KVM_RUN ioctl. That's not present in the version of KVM that I have here (which I pulled a couple of weeks ago). Jeff -- Work email - jdike at linux dot intel dot com - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
