Hello, Now I'm a UML newbie too, so please correct me if I'm wrong...

I haven't put new root filesystem yet. I have downloaded necessary files from http://www.stearns.org/uml-root/ but not yet installad them. Is new root filesystem needed before compiling UML kernel?
No, the kernels (both host and guest) is compiled without any need for a root filesystem other than the hosts.

And there are REALLY MANY problems/errors, like ... /boot/config-2.6.9-1.667:2243: trying to assign nonexisting symbol USB_SERIAL_KEYSPAN_USA19W ... /boot/config-2.6.9-1.667:2504: trying to assign nonexisting symbol EARLY_PRINTK ... /boot/config-2.6.9-1.667:2564: trying to assign nonexisting symbol PC After that qconf starts (if I used xconfig). Problem is, that if I save .config -file in menuconfig/xconfig etc., lines which caused errors before, disappear. Without ARCH=um -parameter they work fine.
I _think_ that's because en uml guest kernel doesn't use those symbols in the kernel and therefore they are not needed in the kernel.
I have Fedora Core 3, kernel 2.6.9-1.667, and I am trying to put UML 2.6.9 -kernel there. I also tried to compile 2.6.10 kernel, but ARCH=um causes these problems. If someone knows what is the problem and/or solution for, let me know, please. Thank you for any help! -Teemu Väisänen
Good luck!
