The device name used in inittab and /etc/fstab only need to be consistent but both are correct,
Either you use devfs and have in you fstab /dev/ubd/0 and in you inittab /dev/ttys/0
or you don't use devfs and you have /dev/ubd0 and /dev/tty0. In that case you start uml with
linux ubd0=Debian-3.0r0 devfs=nomount
When I run uml I don't have devfs by default (I use Debian binaries of uml). How can I explicitely activate it ?
It is an option that must be compiled in the linux executable. You can check if it it compiled in yours with
./linux --showconfig | grep DEVFS and look for CONFIG_DEV_FS=y
If not, you may have to use another binary or compile your own, the devfs option is to be found under the "File System" menu.
The kernel image linux-2.4.19-5 from the uml kernel page has this option set.
