[uml-user] Experience with 2.4.22um

[Joe M. <gm...@no...>]

I saw this issue below in the digest and wondered if there were any 
other problems with 2.4.22um.

I had been using using 2.4.20um6 for some time without many problems and 
went to upgrade the kernel to 2.4.22(I left the rootfs exactly the same 
except for re-installing modules...I suppose that is ok) and found some 
strange instability...it would boot but when I went to do anything in 
the console window it would crash. Debugging it was difficult - it 
seemed to receive many signals (I set gdb to ignore USR1) a SEGV which 
could be continued then finally an IRQ 2 which it could not handle.

I started to suspect that I needed to regenerate the rootfs but I can't 
think of a reason why I should have to.

thanks for any info.

ps. is there a new patch with the /dev/kmem fix? thanks
