Hi all
I have start my UML's in the following manner:
screen -S <name> -d -m su - <user. -c "TMPIR=<tmpfs mounted path>
linux-2.4.27 mem=<196M> \
uml_dir <some other tmp location> ubd0s=<uml_fs> ubd1s swap_fs umid=<name>
eht0=tuntap,tapx,,<host ip>
This all works fine except uml_mconsole appears to misbehave.
If I run uml_mconsole <name> from the host logged in as root, i.e not the
user of the UML in question, I get this:
uml_mcosole <name>
Warning: couldn't stat /root/.uml/<name>/mconsole - No such file or
directory
Warning: couldn't stat /tmp/uml/<name>/mconsole - No such file or directory
(none)
Both warnings are correct. However, the mconsole and pid files are actually
on the <some other tmp location> at stated in my uml_dir parameter above.
If I then run
uml_mcosole /<some other tmp location>/<name> if get this:
Warning: couldn't stat /root/.uml//< some other tmp location
>/<name>/mconsole - No such file or directory
..etc
The above only works if:
1. I run uml_mconsole ../../ <some other tmp location>/<name> using a
relative paths instead of absolute
2. I start the UML as root or su to the user prior to start the UML's (then
screen fails - another story)
3. I set uml_dir to /tmp/uml
Does uml_mconsole not recognize uml_dir other than /tmp/uml ?
Thanks
Gerhard
