Hello,

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

No, the kernels (both host and guest) is compiled without any need for a
root filesystem other than the hosts.

2005/8/11, Väisänen Teemu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

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!

Good luck!
