[uml-user] 2.6.15-1, Fedora Core 4, hang during boot after <== afs_fs_init() = 0

2006-02-15 Thread John Dykstra
This is another one of those "I can't get it to boot" postings. Actually, in two weeks of trying, I haven't been able to get any 2.6 kernel to boot under UML, at least not with a root filesystem that faintly approaches what the kernel requires. I've used UML quite extensively with 2.4 kernels, but

[uml-user] Fixed the uml_moo 64-bit COW bug

Ok, here we are. uml_moo was not portable to 64-bit AMD for some portability bugs. 1) I fixed bug one, SIGFPE at startup of uml_moo or at boot of UML kernel ("Kernel mode signal 8"), time ago. The resulting binary completed the merge, but the results were wrong, compared with the results from a
