(if there's a web page that covers this, a simple pointer to it will
do just fine.)
as a followup to thinking about UML and COW, how would i configure
and run a UML session using multiple filesystems? say i took the time
to create multiple filesystem images corresponding to the following
filesystems (which shouldn't be hard, right?)
root.img: /
usr.img: /usr
var.img /var
and so on. as i read it, i could then start my UML session with:
$ kernel ubda=root.img ubdc=usr.img ubdd=var.img ...
but what would i do from there? would i just associate those devices
with their respective mount points in UML's /etc/fstab, as in:
/dev/ubdc /usr auto defaults 1 1
and so on? i was thinking about this with respect to COW since it
would seem to make sense to share *some* filesystems across multiple
UML sessions, but not all of them. and, if i use multiple
filesystems, would i then have multiple COW files per sharable
filesystem? or am i making this way too difficult?
