Sorry for answering so late... I got a report from another people for the samebug and it seems caused by the tls/x86-64-support in -bb1. there's one suspicious spot in it which I had to check (one initcall return value, but itseems ok). I'll go verify what is happening there (maybe, simply, its TLS

Re: [uml-user] Boot problem

I have seen this message from /sbin/init before when I was experimenting with writing my own initrd.gz in slackware. It didn't actually have anything to do with UML. I am not sure why you would be getting this error message seeing as how you are not using an initrd.gz file. You can get this m

Re: [uml-user] Boot problem

Flavio: What is your uml command line? It looks like the kernel's command line for invoking init is wrong. Are you using an initrd file whose linuxrc script explicitly invokes init? Does the end of your linuxrc have a pivot_root + chroot sequence in it? If so, try invoking init like this: /sb
