Hello, I am trying UML for the first time. For my host I am using Mandrake 8.2 with a 2.4.18 kernel. I have downloaded the following: root_fs.md-8.2-server.pristine.20020324.bz2 user_mode_linux-2.4.18.36um-0.i386.rpm The rpm installed without errors, and the root filesystem uncompressed cleanly. Running linux showed me an amazing picture of the kernel on the root fs booting and mandrake loading. I would like to customise the environment using uml_mconsole. When I run it the following error is displayed: uml_mconsole: error while loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.4.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I have readline-4.2a-1mdk installed which installs /lib/libreadline.so.4.2. Do I need to compile uml_mconsole on my host, or is there another solution? Thanks in Advance, Gavin Porter |

A quick & dirty hack which might work is to simply try creating a symlink like this: /usr/lib/libreadline.so.4.1 -> /usr/lib/libreadline.so Its possible that it will be able to use the 4.2 version. If that fails, then you should try recompiling the umltools (utilities), which is fairly easy, and painfree. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lonni J Friedman net...@li...
