I am trying to use mln to create a mixture of xen and uml guests on
either a Fedora7 (amd athlon 32 bit) or on a CentOS 5 (64bit Intel 6700)
box.

But the uml doesn't startup on either.

on fedora7 (amd 32bit) I only get:

 ./linux ubd0=../../templates/Debian-3.0r0-V1.1.ext2 mem=128M
con0=fd:0,fd:1 root=/dev/ubd0 2>&1 | tee -a
fedora7-mln-uml-2.6.12-rc2-mm3-startup.log
Checking for /proc/mm...not found
Checking PROT_EXEC mmap in /tmp...OK
Adding 21540864 bytes to physical memory to account for exec-shield gap

I would expect a login prompt but am not getting one. and ps and top of
host are showing the following output:

ps shows me

 4167 pts/1    S+     0:00 ./linux [(tracing thread)]
 4168 pts/1    S+     0:00 tee -a fedora7-mln-uml-2.6.12-rc2-mm3-startup.log
 4169 pts/1    S+     0:00 ./linux [(idle thread)]
 4172 pts/1    R+     0:52 ./linux [(idle thread)]

top tells me that the new uml 'linux' process is at 99.99% most of the time

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 4172 root      25   0  128m  464  436 R 99.8  0.0   2:18.53 linux

uname -a on host says:
Linux virt1.uk.om.org 2.6.20-2925.9.fc7xen #1 SMP Tue May 22 08:53:03
EDT 2007 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

and on centos 5 (intel 64bit) I get:
./linux ubd0=../../templates/Debian-3.0r0-V1.1.ext2 mem=128M
con0=fd:0,fd:1 root=/dev/ubd0 2>&1 | tee -a
centos5-mln-uml-2.6.12-rc2-mm3-startup.log
Checking for /proc/mm...not found
Checking PROT_EXEC mmap in /tmp...OK

I would expect a login prompt but am not getting one. and ps and top of
host are showing the following output:

top doesn't show linux to be aparticularly busy process, unlike on the
32bit machine

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

 3723 root      23   0  128m 2128 2104 T    0  0.0   0:00.00 linux


ps shows me

uname -a gives

Linux virt2.uk.om.org 2.6.18-8.1.4.el5xen #1 SMP Thu May 17 03:43:13 EDT
20076_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


Has anybody got a uml kernel and fs that works on top of both of these
recent distros? (Fedora7 + CentOS 5)

Thanks in advance


PS: the kernel and uml fs are both pre-compiled versions available from
mln.sf.net/files
