Hello Phill, I am using Mandrake 8.2 /x86 filesystem on UML ( got the file root_fs.md-8.2-full.pristine.20020324.bz2 from http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/dl-sf.html ).
UML kernel version is 2.6.13.4 compiled straight off from kernel sources from kernel.org. Host is FC4 with no patch whatsoever. My host is an x86 machine with 2.4 GHz P4 processor on intel motherboard. regards Taha --- Phill Wombat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Taha, > > Are you using FC4/x86 UML on FC4/x86 host with SKAS3 > patch?
