Setting up the root filesystem
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Run setup in this directory:
|
|
|
|
. setup
|
|
|
|
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. You may need to give X server access control for the uml instance by
|
|
typing this on your host machine: xhost +192.168.1.2
|
|
|
|
3. If you haven't already done this, you will want to edit the
|
|
/etc/network/interfaces file using vi. This should be self-explanatory.
|
|
|
|
4. You don't need to load any modules required by your host system, because
|
|
uml_net will cause the modules to be loaded automatically - assuming your
|
|
kernel has kmod - when it automatically configures the tap device interface
|
|
for ethertap. But if you want or need to do it manually from your host
|
|
system, you could do something like this:
|
|
|
|
modprobe ethertap
|
|
modprobe netlink_dev
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
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, and make sure it is setuid root
|
|
(chmod 4755).
|
|
|
|
7. Run startx. It will ask for your host ip number.
|
|
|
|
That's it.

Hints:
|
|
Mount the host fs: mount -t hostfs none /mnt
|
|
mount -t hostfs none -o /home /mnt
