I have been trying to compile UML on a Xeon EM64T test box we have, but
have been unable to get any kernel compiled. I have tried 2.6.10,
2.6.11, 2.6.4 with the x86_64 patch, and 2.4.25 with the x86_64 patch.
Has anybody else had any luck with this? Or does anyone have a .config
file they would

Can you give me a pointer to code that does this? I see no hint in random.c
that it takes entropy from the hardware rng.

I switched the console to the Host. For example while an

I had a similar experience. I configured the UML with 256MB RAM, and put

Excellent, thanks Jeff!
Am I right in thinking that similar code could be used to forward any
character device?
Unrelated question, is skas0 going to work on x86_64 as host or/and as
guest: I mean will I be able to run a x86 kernel on x86_64 with skas? -
there seems to be a few patches that mentio
Hello,
does anybody know of any possibility to emulate a serial connection
between 2 UMLs running on the same host ?
Thanks,

The howto originally written by Rusty Russell has an example which may be
relevant:

Yes, but this relies on an existing place to plug in the UML side. So, it
works best when you're implementing some sort of device which has a physical
analog already supported by Li
