[uml-user] [newbie] Hang after INIT starts

[Chris B. <bo...@bo...>]

Hi all,

I'm new to UML.

I've followed whatever instructions I could find and have set up a 
Gentoo root filesystem for my UML setup. I get the kernel to run and 
mount the root FS, but it hangs just after "INIT: version 2.84 
booting". One of the linux processes seems to be locked in a loop, 
using 99.9% cpu.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks in advance,
Chris
