Pull down, decompress, and use with a uml root filesystem (see http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net). Options used are in http://www.stearns.org/uml/config-2.5.64-bk3-63um1-3 , System.map at http://www.stearns.org/uml/System.map-2.5.64-bk3-63um1-3 . As with any development kernel, please remember that this may very well corrupt data. Please make a backup of your UML root filesystem before using. The kernel _appears_ to work - no more guarantees than that. :-) (For those interested in compiling it themselves, Jeff's 2.5.63-um1 patch plus http://www.stearns.org/uml/linux-2.5.64-bk3-63um1-initcall.patch is all that appears to be needed) Cheers, - Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Do what you love, and love what you do, and you will never work another day in your life." -------------------------------------------------------------------------- William Stearns (wstearns@pobox.com).
