I've got another cannot-boot problem. My UML is built from 2.6.16-rc4
source, with Jeff's patch set and the defconfig configuration. My root
filesystem is
http://www.stearns.org/uml-root/root_fs.fc-3-base.pristine.20050605.bz2,
with MAKEDEV std, generic, and the ubd0 etc. devices created per the
website, and inittab and fstab modified to use those /dev entries.

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate
superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

-------------------
However, if I shut down UML and look at the filesystem via loopback, the
ubd0, ubd1, etc. files are there, with the correct major/minor.
Comparing the two views of /dev, there are also a number of character
device files present in the loopback view that I don't see when
partially booted within UML.
So what filesystem is mounted (read-only) when the boot is interrupted?
How do I get it to contain the necessary block device files?
Or am I totally confused?
