[uml-user] UML as a hosting system

[Lars Marowsky-B. <lm...@su...>]

Hi,

I have just started looking at UML for hosting - development mostly, neat way
to test clusters on a single node ;-) And also for some (private) sandbox
ideas.

Is it possible to make UML not run its own scheduler, but rely entirely on the
host ? I mean, many of those tasks just aren't necessary since the host
already provides them, or am I missing something?

I understand that they might be useful for debugging the kernel, but they
appear superfluous to me otherwise.

Other than that, it is cool stuff! ;) I will be looking at preparing a SuSE
7.2 root image soon-ish, but _unfortunately_ I will spend the entire weekend
partying ;-)

Oh - and if I resize the db0 file on the host, is that noticed by UML so I
could do resizereiserfs and grow the filesystem online?

Sincerely,
    Lars Marowsky-Brée <lm...@su...>
