Sorry if duped. The first didn't seem to post. Hi,
While booting UML, I'm getting this error: Mounting local filesystems...failed. The host is Debian Sarge with Etch's user-mode-linux package installed. I created an LVM partition, formatted it with ext3, mounted it and executed debootstrap a such: sudo debootstrap --include=ssh,udev etch $MOUNT http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian I then edited $MOUNT/etc/fstab too look like this: /dev/ubda / ext3 defaults 0 1 /dev/ubdb none swap sw 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 also setup timezone, lo and hostname This I copied over the kernel libs: sudo cp -Rp /usr/lib/uml/modules/* $MOUNT/lib/modules/ unmount $MOUNT and executed the uml: sudo /usr/bin/linux ubda=/dev/vg2/uml ubdb=/dev/vg2/uml_swap mem=128M Everything looks fine on boot except the mounting of the local filesystems. Here's a bit more of the output: Initializing software serial port version 1 ubda: unknown partition table ubdb: unknown partition table kjournald starting.

Notice that ubda looks fine in previous messages. I can't figure out the reason for the failure.
