Thanks a lot for your messages!
I still seem to have some issues though.

Still using devfs? I've seen some systems hanging because of that, time ago...
I don't know. I believe the guide said the default kernel configuration would produce a working system, so I'm using that. Does the default config with ARCH=um have devfs?

Perfectly right if that's a host xterm, that's a UML console... see "console channels" page in the main website.
I do not have X11 on my server. I also tried it with the DISPLAY environent pointing to my workstation's X11 server, but I got another error then. Is it normal that it tries to open an xterm when the DISPLAY value isn't set?

This method indeed seems neat. I haven't been able to get it to work yet though. The original kernel I used was version 2.6.14.3. I got the following error with this though:
http://haar.student.utwente.nl/~julius/2.6.14
I read that that error was fixed in 2.6.15-rc1 though, so I installed the most recent patch, but that gave me this error:
http://haar.student.utwente.nl/~julius/2.6.15-rc5

Any idea what could cause this?

Thanks again,
Julius
