Well, this particular error (the build one) should be fixed in -bs... for the SMP mode we'll work on it, however SMP support is not very maintained because it's supported for now only in TT mode, which is slower... i.e. with SKAS on the host you get better performances than with SMP.
OK, I'll try that branch. TT mode is all that's possible for me, as I don't control the server (and don't have root). Is there any previous 2.6 UML patch that actually works with SMP (and would there be a strong reason for me not to use it)?
Incidentally, the fix that was posted here for slirp also worked for me as well. Slirp now works like a charm. So thanks much for that. :)
Random question: is TT mode really significantly slower than running on the host in all cases? I mainly use UML to have a consistent platform for running simulations on department-maintained machines - basically no disk accesses while it's running. I haven't noticed a significant slowdown over the native version, but maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention.
