Hi, I have problems with the debian-package of user-mode-linux. I I use Debian-Sarge and installed the following packages : rootstrap user-mode-linux uml-utilities umlrun
after that i tried to build a root-fs with rootstrap ... my bootstrap-config is : i type "rootstrap test_uml_img" ... ang get : --- nullserver:/var/uml# rootstrap test Checking for the skas3 patch in the host...not found Checking for /proc/mm...not found tracing thread pid = 25695 Checking for /dev/anon on the host...Not available (open failed with errno 2) Checking for /dev/anon on the host...Not available (open failed with errno 2) Checking for /dev/anon on the host...Not available (open failed with errno 2) Checking for /dev/anon on the host...Not available (open failed with errno 2) Linux version 2.4.26-3um ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 3.3.4 (Debian 1:3.3.4-11)) #2 Wed Sep 8 18:07:31 PDT 2004 On node 0 totalpages: 8192 zone(0): 8192 pages. zone(1): 0 pages. zone(2): 0 pages.
