The '-l' flag to patch causes it to ignore differences in white-space. Is this important for this patch? If not, then the failures are just an artifact of my copy-paste from the email you sent. Please let me know if the white-space in this patch is critical. On another note, this test did give me the opportunity to capture a bug I've encountered periodically with UML for several months where the kernel crashes during system boot. It happened again this morning while booting one of the instances with the new kernel and I was fortunate enough to be capturing a log of the output. You can view it here: http://www.coherenthosting.com/prj/uml/miscellaneous/2.6.25-rc2-mm1_bug_output.txt Of course, this is a fairly long-standing issue and appears to be unrelated to changes in the new kernel. The work-around is to simply restart the instance as this happens about 1 out of every 10 boot attempts. I suspect that it may also be caused by the age of my host kernel (2.6.21.6-skas3-v8.2).
