That's not like the skas3 patch which is only for the host kernel. But now, it doesn't matter! Use the skas4 patch! > That being the case, which version of it > do I want? Jeff Dike released two versions of the skas4 patch, the first one is for the 2.6.24 host and guest kernel, the last one is for the 2.6.25 host and guest kernel. You may fint them on the mailing list archive. > From reading the list archives, I've seen mention of > SKAS4, although I can't seem to find a place to download that; is it > unofficial at this point? I don't think so. Since the first release of the first skas4 patch, they have been released through this mailin list. So, as I told before, you may find all patches you need in the mailing list archive. > The host kernel is linux 2.6.25. Which > version of SKAS would be suited for this version? The latest one released by Jeff Dike in this list. > > Also, am I able to take some .iso (say some linux distro) and boot > from that using UML? Of course. There are a lot of ready to use images, for example you can find them at http://uml.nagafix.co.uk/ > Are there any caveats to doing so? No risks.. > Would I need > some base image first?
