Hello,
I'm trying to use hostfs for my root file system.
I think providing hostfs access for root file system is great. It will
help especially for the near future because the current linux file
systems are still catching up on block discard.
I have almost been able to finish my uml setup. But I have one major glitch.
Warning: unable to open an initial console.
Not activating Mandatory Access Control now since /sbin/tomoyo-init
doesn't exist.

In the snippet above, you can notice that the dpkg command fails. I am
not sure what is the real cause.

id 1000 maps to the user id on the host, that executed the uml application.
I did this file ownership change because the guides mentioned it. I do
have read/write access to these files/directories, but dpkg fails to
proceed. It cannot install a package. `apt-get update` does work though.
Here's the listing of:

These files are written during the "apt-get update" operation.
Since the `apt-get update` operation succeeds, is this more of a dpkg
bug than UML's ?
PS: Even running UML as root does not help. I can log in, do apt-get
update, but as soon as I try to install, it fails.
Here's an apt-get install failure example:

BTW, this is pretty interesting. I do have read/write access to these
