bugs founds while running underneath uml. One percular bug pertaining
to OPTIONS was found after running a uml from the uml box then closing
it again making a new root_fs and opening it again the options were
missing. Haven't noticed this on the host system before. Will also
need to add a c program to determine whether the host kernel is tt or
skas to auto-magically determing what kernel mode to run in.
logic for cmdline only to set-up .gbootroot* properly, and the logic
pertaining to mode={tt,skas}, but other than that things are working
nicely. Will have to come out with a new make-debian-x11 package, but
then again will need to come out with a new root_fs representing the
nesting changes, too.
involved, next I need to decide whether to establish and different
build and package area. Probably, at least a package area so it
doesn't interfere with the system.

set-up. Pretty cool, if this package was an official package it would
use kernel-sources* package, but instead, I made some minor
modifications since I don't want to have to dl kernel sources
every time a compile is done, and kernel.org is still the definitive
place for the source.
find port-helper, or otherwise root_fs complain. Have no idea why
this change exists with port-helper because wasn't the case before.
Also, added path for user-mode-linux/usr/bin to find the other tools.
Also, improves all in Makefile
compiling now that a new binutils was installed. Now need to make the
helper_root_fs and Initrd with the uml kernel which was just made and
should be just about there. This will all be done as non-root.
Initrd.gz stuff is now set-up. This is nice.

helper_root_fs and Initrd with the uml kernel which was just made and

finally need to adjust gbootroot_pkg so all the new compiled stuff can
be extracted in their proper place, ofcourse, this could be done in
the Makefile, too.

for gui-mode and cli, and all executables can be properly specified.
Ex:
./gbootroot --home . --template Example-Mini.yard --uml-exclusively on
--expect-program ./expect_uml
--uml-kerneluser-mode-linux/usr/bin/linux --root-fs-helper
root_filesystem/root_fs_helper
./gbootroot --home . --template Example-Mini.yard --genext2fs-dir
genext2fs/ --filesystem-command "genext2fs -z -r0"
conflict with user-mode-linux, need to check on the set-up. Probably gbootroot
should be made to conflict with these deb packages. Options has more
explanation and another hidden option added.
