I am using KVM for the obsolete machines, I have an old RHEL3 (kernel 2.4) inside fedora 10 and 11. I use UML much more, but only when host and guest are both recent. You can have a look at http://clownix.net where you can have plug-and-play UML or KVM machines networks. If you have the installation CDs for your 2.4 machine, you can make a KVM machine in less than one hour.
Is anyone running a 2.4 UML kernel on a 2.6 host system? If so I'll like to know what stack of tools you used. I'm trying to replicate a Debian 3.0 woody system on a Debian 5.0 lenny system. I have used the Debian 5.0 uml-utilities and user-mode-linux packages with gcc-3.4 to build a UML linux-2.4.37.2 kernel. uml-utilities 20070815-1.1 user-mode-linux 2.6.26-1um-2+16 user-mode-linux-doc 20060501-1 gcc-3.4 3.4.6-9 KILLED, Is all I get.
