I upgraded to 2.4.24-1um, but the same error still persist on the um..i.e. the disk reads takes so long when used with the O_DIRECT flag !!
Anybody has any explanation for that??

Thank you,
Lamia Youseff

I am running UML 2.4.19 on top of kernel 2.4.25.  I have time output like

Well, could you try upgrading it to 2.4.24-1um and retesting? That UML is old, 
buggy, and outdated.
