I'm using a stock 2.6.22.5 distribution kernel for UML. I'm
experiencing the problem described here:
http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/new/problems.html#vdso where
the UML kernel hangs.

The host is a FC6 machine with glibc-common-2.5-10.fc6 and a
2.6.20-1.2962.fc6 kernel. The problem showed up after adding a few
lines of code to my UML kernel; these lines aren't exercised during
the boot process, however. It appears that simply adding those lines
makes the problem appear and removing them makes it go away.

The suggestion given at the URL above include changing the kernel
configuration of the host (if I understand them correctly). Since I do
not have root access (these are shared university lab machines), I do
not have the option of installing my own host kernel.

Is there a way to avoid this issue?  I'm planning on using UML for a
student assignment, however, I would be very hesitant to do so if this
problem persists since it would make development impossible.

Thanks.
