+Setting up a Swap File
+----------------------
+
+1. run make_swapfile in this directory:
+
+. make_swapfile
+
+
+Getting X working
+-----------------
+
+1. To get X11 working you will need to get your network up.  The instructions
+below assume your host (the computer you are running) has an ip of 192.168.1.4,
+a uml ip of 192.168.1.2 and a tap device ip of 192.168.1.5.
+
+2. If you haven't already done this, you will want to edit the 
+/etc/network/interfaces file using vi.  This should be self-explanatory.
+
+3. Load any modules required by your host system.  If you decide to use 
+tap, do this: 
+
+modprobe ethertap
+modprobe netlink_dev
+
+4. Configure the device on your host system.  Here the tap device is being
+set to 192.168.1.5 and then routed to the host 192.168.1.4:
+
+ifconfig tap0 192.168.1.5
+route add -host 192.168.1.4 gw 192.168.1.5
+
+5. The next time you start the uml kernel and boot the root_fs you will want 
+to give it options like this where  HWaddr (see ifconfig) belongs to your 
+network device:
+
+ubd0=/root_fs_debian_x11 root=/dev/ubd0 eth0=ethertap,tap0,HWaddr,192.168.1.5 mem=64M
+
+Hint: An easier way to do this would be to use the UML box in gbootroot from
+your host computer.  No ..  uml doesn't work within uml. :)
+
+6. At this point you should be able to ping 192.168.1.4.
+
+Hint: Check to make sure that uml_net came bundled with the uml kernel,
+because this is what enables networking.
+
+6.  Run startx.  It will ask for your host ip number.
+
+That's it.

+user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net
+
+Hints:
+Mount the host fs:  mount -t hostfs none /mnt
+		    mount -t hostfs none -o /home /mnt
