Hi I am using a host and guest 2.6.6 kernel with uml and skas patches applied. I can get a uml instance to startup ok and can talk to it via the network. However, I can not communicate with it via mconsole, when it boots it gives me the error: make_umid - mkstemp failed, errno = 2 also when I shut the uml instance down with a shutdown -h 0 is shuts down the instance but leaves a few processes running on the host system. I have been starting the instances using ./linux umid=uml127 ubd0=root_fs_cp127 udb1=swapfile-uml127 eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.xxx.250 Any ideas or suggestions of where I may have gone wrong are welcome.

The second point which I forgot to add about was that if i use the argument mem=100M the uml instance takes no notice.
