Hi, I am trying to compile UML from scratch on a Debian Sarge (2.6.18-3-686) system. After some preliminary hiccups, I managed to compile the UML, but have an issue booting the UML.
Following are the steps I followed to build uml "linux" binary: * tar xjvf linux-source-2.6.18.tar.bz2 * cd linux-source-2.6.18/ * /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.18/apply/debian 2.6.18-3 * 04_include_PAGESHIFT_definition.patch * make defconfig ARCH=um * make menuconfig ARCH=um * make ARCH=um I downloaded the Debian root-fs from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/user-mode-linux/Debian-3.0r0.ext2.bz2 I tried running the uml using: * linux ubd0=debian-3.0r0.ext2 I get the following error: Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...OK Checking syscall emulation patch for ptrace...OK Checking advanced syscall emulation patch for ptrace...OK Checking for tmpfs mount on /dev/shm...OK Checking PROT_EXEC mmap in /dev/shm/...failed: Operation not permitted /dev/shm/ must be not mounted noexec Can someone help me understand this?
