Hello,

i've set up an uml-machine with hostfs support, which I can confirm via 
cat /proc/filesystems. When trying to mount the hosts filesystem via

 mount none /mnt/host -t hostfs

 I do not get any message but I cannot see any data of the hosts / in the 
folder /mnt/host in the uml. when trying 

mount none /mnt/home -t hostfs -o /home

I get the following error message:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on none,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

Partial output of dmesg | tail is:

EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly.
EXT3 FS 2.4-0.9.19, 19 August 2002 on ubd(98,0), internal journal

which doesn't help much.

I'll appreciate any suggestions and help

Christian
