[uml-user] Getting image of FC2 to boot

2004-12-17 Thread Jed Reynolds
Hi, I nievely took an image of the root partition from one of my FC2 servers and tried to boot it under UML. I can't seem to get it past mounting the root partition in read-only mode. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Host: FC2 2.6.5-1.358, I've compiled a 2.6.9 kernel plus uml-2.6.9-bb4.patc
