[uml-user] Loopback mounts broken in 2.6.23-rc3?

2007-08-23 Thread Rob Landley
Does anybody know why loopback mounts stopped working when I went from 2.6.22 to 2.6.23-rc3? My config didn't change, the only thing that did was which source tarball I pointed the build at. If nobody else has hit this, I'll get around to debugging it eventually... Rob -- "One of my most prod

[uml-user] Simulate a hotplug event?

2006-01-11 Thread Rob Landley
Does UML have any hotpluggable hardware? Somebody just contributed hotplug support to mdev (a mini-udev replacement in busybox) and I'd like to test it before committing it, and simulating hotplug under UML seems a nice way, but I'm not quite sure how to yank and insert hardware under this thin
