Hi, I saw the previous mail showing that tboot will work on feroda 13.
However, I'm wondering if it will work on Ubuntu 10.04, for I was
suffering from installing the tboot for several days.

I've changed the default grub2 to grub, and made the same grub
configuration as in the previous mail, and change the kernel to
2.6.35-19 . It succeeded in launching the tboot.gz (including the
begin_launch() and post_launch() ), and transferring the control to
linux kernel, however, it fails, and stops while launching the kernel,
showing the message like this:
"ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/.... does not exist. Dropping a shell!"

I tried to boot pc with several configurations, in order to dig more
information:
1. remove the sinit module in menu.lst
 the kernel was launched successfully, which shows begin_launch() and
launch_kernel(false) works. But it didn't enter into post_launch(),
which means it was not a measured launch.
2. edit the source code in post_launch() where launch_kernel(true)
turns to launch_kernel(false)
It also failed and showed the message:"ALERT!......Dropping a shell!!"
I thought launch_kernel(false)  worked fine in begin_launch() where
the  policy was TB_POLACT_UNMEASURED_LAUNCH, and it would work as well
in post_launch. However, it turned out that I was wrong.

So, until now, I still cannot figure out what's wrong with the
configuration, and expect if someone would help me with this.
Thanks very much
