Re: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] Texas UML instances and OLSR+BATMAN tests

[Axel Neumann <axel@open-mesh.net>]

I am currently trying to get a grip on vnuml ( 
http://www.dit.upm.es/vnumlwiki/index.php/Tutorial ) which has good howtos 
and tutorial for building host- and uml- kernels and root_fs.

Especially vnuml offers a framework for virutal network configuration based on 
xml-configuration files. I think texas-kernel is also patched for vnuml 
enhancements but for texas's root_fs and network-configuration scripts I am 
not shure. 
Maybe aaron can provide some more background on that?

In order to releas texas from unproductive trial-and-error configuration 
testing (and feeling less intervening when applying core-kernel-patches or 
installing new system-libraries) I started to setup a small vnuml environment 
on my home-pc. Therefore I found also the following links quite useful:

http://www.dit.upm.es/vnumlwiki/index.php/Installation

http://www.enic.fr/people/landru/viminal/vnuml.gentoo/how-to/vnuml-gentoo-guide.html
( gentoo oriented setup, host-kernel-enhancement, uml-kernel, root_fs )

http://www.dit.upm.es/vnumlwiki/index.php/Howto
( further links for root_fs howtos )

@aaron:
do you have a link explaining from-scratch busybox-based uml-rootfs generation 
(as being used on texas) ? 


ciao,
axel
