Hi,
          I am facing a problem in sharing a single root fileystem between multiple UML instances through COW (Copy on write). I am following the steps given in
http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/shared_fs.html  for sharing fileystems between multiple UML instances.
 
I am using the root_fs.rh-9-full.pristine.20030724.bz2     root filesystem from  http://www.stearns.org/uml-root/ .
 
When I start my UML instance with ./vmlinux ubd0=root_fs_cow, root_fs_sh9_pristine  devfs=nomount rw, it failes to boot up saying that can't open root_fs_cow err=113 etc. As per the steps given in the link it's not necessary to have a root_fs_cow and willl create when UML booted up fisrt time, right?
 
 
Thanks,
Pranjal
