Hello,
i am trying to use uml tool.
But i am facing lot of problems.
their is ARCH um directory in kernel tree.
Which we have to configure and make.
But what else is required for running uml
like rootfs,uml tools-ultilities
here is login session :
http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/login.html
i want that one.
I already read the HOW-TO in kernel source tree's Documentation.
(2.6.14)
Can anybody list the steps of installation in simpler way
and also downloads requied.
If u specify links that will help me lot.
Their are lot of versions available of these stuff and it become more difficult.
And if any body installed it please give me ur doc's n other stuff
Are you too dumb to read the
Are you too dumb to read the documentation on the UML web page?
misunderstanding
hey i had read these documents but i don't understand some (many) part of that.
for eg.
Apply the patch using
323
324
325
326 host%
327 cd ~/uml/linux
328
329
330
331 host%
332 bzcat uml-patch-2.4.0-prerelease.bz2 | patch -p1
333
what is this
where to apply
to linux tree then what is purpose of UM directory in arch??
And their are lot other things
even i had got 'linux' file in top dir of source of kernel but when i try to run it given me some errors abt fs, root= ,etc..
uml-patch-2.4.0-prerelease.bz
uml-patch-2.4.0-prerelease.bz2 is the patch.. which should be applied to the linux source code tree.
cd /usr/src/linux
bzcat /path/to/uml-patch.bz2 | patch -p1
to linux tree then what is purpose of UM directory in arch??
UML is (probably) implemented as it's own architecture... since it runs on top of linux it doesn't need to know about the underlying hardware, only how to pass stuff down to the "real" kernel.
next prob
see another one :
424 You can also get the kernel build process to install them as follows:
425
426 1. with the kernel not booted, mount the root filesystem in the top
427 level of the kernel pool:
428
429
430 host% mount root_fs mnt -o loop
431
------------------copied from 2.6.11 offcourse lxr
what is this 'root_fs'
Since they're using the loopb
Since they're using the loopback thingy, probably a file with a filesystem.
dd if=/dev/zero of=root_fs bs=1M count=512
mke2fs root_fs
mount -o loop root_fs /mnt/root
cd /mnt/root
etc..
