[uml-user] Getting image of FC2 to boot

[Jed R. <li...@be...>]

Hi,

I nievely took an image of the root partition from one of my FC2 servers 
and tried to boot it under UML. I can't seem to get it past mounting the 
root partition in read-only mode. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Host: FC2 2.6.5-1.358, I've compiled a 2.6.9 kernel plus 
uml-2.6.9-bb4.patch + UBD_SYNC option. I've tried copying the ext3 root 
image to an ext2 file root image, no luck.  Appended  "init=/bin/sh 1" 
to boot. Moved /lib/tls to /lib/no_no_tls, no luck.

Is this hopeless? Is this perhaps something that Mr Stearns has solved?

TIA

Jed
