Thx for the interesting idea of mounting a Host mountpoint within a VM.
Might work in special situations but I can immediately anticipate problems
between distros and even distro versions because of
- init scripts may or may not exist
- degree of systemd integration. Something as simple as a syste
If your host machine is also openSUSE ,then you can probably mount host's
/sbin/ on the virutal machine's /mnt/
with a command like -
UML VM#mount none /mnt -t hostfs -o /sbin
Now you have access to host's binary from within virtual machine. You can
copy some missing files.
Though these copied bi
Update - I found that the init command was inaccessible in all running VMs
(weird) but this led me to look closer at what was available in /sbin.

commands failed because they in turn were calling apps which did not exist.

Hello,
Now that I recently was able to boot some UML VMs, I quickly ran into
the problem that the fs I am using from fs.devloop.org.uk seem
to be missing some fairly standard executables like /sbin/shutdown.
So, am wondering how to best shutdown a VM missing "shutdown," should
it and others like
