A few weeks ago, after more struggling than I expected, I was abble to
run UML. I recompiled the linux kernel from source; I did not use the
root fs files available in the website, and found a Debian that seems to
suit my needs.
But yesterday I tried to execute it again, it did not work. The fact
that yesterday I tried it through SSH makes a difference?
Most of the command lines I had in my Bash history (long enough to have
almost everything I did in the previous session with this problem). None
of them worked. Most of them just seg fault in the beginning of
execution. Error related to root fs (surprise for me!). Just two of the
commands I tried did not seg fault immediatelly; but they also give no
output, and I had to start another SSH session, at the same time, to be
able to kill it (since ctrl+c and any other keyboard shortcuts) would be
"processed" my uml. I'm not sure what to do now.
This command line I executed right now:
./linux-2.6.24-x86_64 ubda=Debian-Wheezy-x86-root_fs mem=128M
Execute in the folder where the root fs file exists, gives ONLY this
output (almost immediatelly). It is through SSH. Is there a problem
here? I expected an user/password "screen" or anything similar.
The whole output I have for the above command, and I will let it waiting
for several minutes, is:
