Keywords: UML, user mode linux, rootstrap. Looking for anyone out there (Oki, I know you're one of 'em) who's messing with UML.
I've got user-mode-linux installed, and have managed to boot it with the base Debian Potato tarball (see http://twiki.iwethey.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/UserModeLinux). What I can't for the life of me figure out is how to build a filesystem using rootstrap. Anyone out there who'se dont that and might be able to augment the currently available docs? It's also not clear, BTW, what's necessary to actually run UML. The existing UML docs don't particularly suggest that there are filesystem images available, what's needed to build one, or where to download existing ones if that's the route you want to go. Other odds'n'ends. What's the relationship between host and guest bogomips in UML? I'm seeing 1192.75 bogomips real, about 512 under UML. Is this typical? Peace. -- Karsten M.
