IOW you can run a Linux kernel as normal user space process on Linux. It was one of the very first vm solutions for Linux. Pick a current kernel source and run: $ make defconfig ARCH=um $ make linux ARCH=um it will produce an ELF binary called "linux", run it. It's your kernel. E.g. ./linux rootfstype=hostfs init=/bin/sh See: http://uml.devloop.org.uk/howto.html HTH -- Thanks, //richard _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
