 Can some of you still reproduce it? If not (or if no answer comes) I'll
 close this bug in a couple of weeks.

This bug was reported against user-mode-linux 2.4.x.
There have been a large version jump.

This bug was caused by a compiler problem:
user-mode-linux 2.4.x build with gcc-3.3  - tt mode is broken
user-mode-linux 2.4.x build with gcc-2.95 - slirp support is broken.

In both case the symptom was a failure to boot.

I have been using user-mode-linux 2.4.x build with gcc-2.95 in skas mode
with slirp network for ages without trouble.

With more recent user-mode-linux 2.4.x release, I hit a issue with
hostsfs support that is unrelated to this bug, but I got stuck to use
older release.

I would be quite happy to test user-mode-linux 2.6 but I will not have enough
bandwidth until September.

Cheers,

Yes, that's why I was asking and my default assumption would be that the
bug is gone.

 This bug was caused by a compiler problem:
 user-mode-linux 2.4.x build with gcc-3.3  - tt mode is broken
 user-mode-linux 2.4.x build with gcc-2.95 - slirp support is broken.
 
 In both case the symptom was a failure to boot.

Did it was fully reproducible by anyone? 
If so the bug is definitely gone, slirp here is fully functional with
current u-m-l.
Also, TT mode is deprecated, unset and unused (skas0 is preferred anyway):

$ grep MODE_TT ~/devel/debian/uml/pkg-uml/trunk/src/user-mode-linux/config.i386
# CONFIG_MODE_TT is not set


Thanks again

 I thought the bug was closed by the message date 04 Apr 2003 from the
 then maintainer Matt Zimmerman. So, in particular, I have not
 followed through on this bug. In fact, I have not used UML for quite
 a while. So I have no objections to closing this bug.

 I think the discussion was like, building UML with gcc 3.X broke one
 part and 3.Y broke another part, so each release of UML had different
 parts functional, different parts non-functional.

yes, there was also gcc 2.95 in the game, (3.2 and 3.3 were the others)

 That was the old days; not quite sure if things have progressed too
 much.

well, the official compiler for the linux kernel is now gcc = 3.2 so at
least _one_ step ahead should have happened.

UML doesn't boot at all for me, so no problem, feel free to close this
bug. There's no real point in tracking this bug.
