Re: [opensuse-kernel] openSUSE - User Mode Linux
Hi,

I followed the instructions in the UML wiki
(http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/ ) . I found that after
compiling the kernel sources (Linus' tree) with ARCH=um option, I need
to download a root filesystem which is based of fedora. Instead of
downloading that I would like to know if there is any other root
filesystem that I can use which is based on SUSE.

I have not looked into the wiki page in detail to find out how I can
create my custom root filesystem image for UML. But before that I
wanted to check if there is any openSUSE based root image, that I can
just download and use.
Well, I think you can take just any root image - preferably built for
virtual environments. So you can either do the installation yourself or
just get some image from SUSE Studio...
