Subject: RE: [uml-user] Login never shows up!!
Try:

con=null con1=fd:0,fd:1

This will appear to "hang" after "Initializing stdio console driver" but if
you give it a minute you should get a login prompt.  The messages relating
to things that are happening during that time are being sent to TTY0, so you
could connect to that instead:

con=null con0=fd:0,fd:1

That would require you to run a Getty on TTY0 but it's the easiest way of
getting to a login prompt and seeing all kernel messages (IMO).

If you want to run a Getty on TTY0 the two files you need to modify are:

/etc/inittab - copy the tty1 line or add another:
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty0
/etc/securetty - Add "tty0" to the list of "secure consoles" if you want to
login as root

 Hi again all,

Okay: I've gotten a few file systems to load..
but now I never get to see a login prompt on any rootfs!!!

I've tried con=xterm, etc with no luck.. but all the docs I have read
indicate that I should see a login if I just say
linux ubd0=yada

and nothing else!!

Thanks in advance for any help!

Subject: /dev/udb/0 mounting problem

Hi all,

I've racked my brain all day on this. I'm running debian 3.0 with a
custom built 2.4.18 kernel.

I didn't build with devfs.. Nor tunnelling or ethertap :(

So I have a few probs: I have tried 4 different rootfs and they all
freak out saying they can't mount /dev/udb/0.. Editing fsb gets me by
but then I hit the whole 'process spawning too quickly' problem..

What am I doing wrong? Why are all the filesystems I download bad? And
because I forgot to include tunneling in the kernel am I screwed? Or can
I build just that one module now?

Thx!!
