Hello all, I'm having a bit of trouble with a filesystem mounted
via hostfs which contains symlinks. Attempting to edit
or execute a file via the symlink produces a File Not Found
error message. Is this a known error or am I perhaps missing
a vital library?
Additionally, what does one use for a modulename to
download via cvs as this page
(http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=429) mentions.
Thanks for the great project.

hostfs is not totally debugged at this point, so it's likely to be a bug.

The kernel source is under module 'linux'.

The bug in hostfs is in file creation processes too:
when a file is created on hostfs in uml, then
the owner of the created file is user which runs uml,
not user which wants to create the file (this can be satisfy when uml is run by root and user's ids are the same inside&outside uml too)
