[User-mode-linux-user] user-mode port 0.25-2.3.99-pre9

[Jeff D. <jd...@ka...>]

Another release of the user-mode port of 2.3.99-pre9 is available.

NOTE:  The fhd device and its use of block major 62 are now GONE.  If you 
haven't already, you need to update your filesystems to use ubd, block major 
98, instead.  Your fstab should refer to /dev/ubd/* rather than /dev/disk/* 
(if you're using devfs) or /dev/ubd* rather than /dev/fhd* (if you're not, and 
in this case, you also need to create the /dev/ubd* entries that you use).

A number of bugs have been fixed, including the sporadic process seg faults 
and the network hang.

Disk I/O is now asynchronous and interrupt driven.  This is done by having a 
separate I/O thread which actually does the operations, and notifies the 
kernel when they are done.
