[uml-user] segmentation fault

[David C. <ma...@da...>]

Hi

I'm trying to get going with UML on a Fedora Core 1 system.  Since Fedora is a 
RH derivative, the 2.4.19 RPM is no use due to the kernel panic on startup.  
Hence I bit the bullet, downloaded the Linux 2.4.22 vanilla kernel and 
patched it with uml-patch-2.4.22-6.  I used the default options for 
compilation and it compiled just fine, as I followed the instructions on the 
compiling page.

However, when I run linux, it segfaulted:

Checking for the skas3 patch in the host...not found
Checking for /proc/mm...not found
Segmentation fault

I saw the entry in the FAQ about the 2G/2G split which seems the only 
reference to an immediate segfault, and since I had no idea how my machine 
was configured in that respect, I tried that enabling CONFIG_HOST_2G_2G on a 
clean make, but still to no avail.

I've attached the strace.

Any ideas?  As you'll appreciate from the above, I'm something of a newbie and 
so I'm sorry if I'm failing to do something simple.

Many thanks

David
