However, it's normal that with hostfs it doesn't fully work - especially because a) it can't write on the disk (at least it shouldn't be able, you are running it as root and you're trying to get into trouble) b) it cannot boot over your root partition - both because it is used, and because things as /dev/ubd0 do not exist. > and boot up > the UML.

Something I miss? sh uses that prompt, /bin/bash instead of /bin/sh would give you the nicer prompt. But that's not your main problem. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can add them to my list!
