Subject: [uml-devel] UML "Distro" ?
Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004 00:31:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <053e01c4b6f4$93f48e90$2000000a@schlepptopp> (raw)
Hi folks,
I would like to hear your opinion if it`s worth thinking about a "UML Linux Distribution".
It could be based on another distro (debian? fedora?) and contain:
- A setup for installation of a minimalistic, UML-"ready" base system - call it a "UML
runtime environment". That means: Recent and skas/sysemu-patched kernel(2.6), modules,
X, uml-utilities, screen, scripts, bridge-utils......
- Pre-configured environment (bridge setup,tmpfs,mountpoints...)
- some UML kernels
- basic root-filesystems "ready to run"
This could be valuable to people who want to get UML run quickly at good performance or want
to roll it out in larger environments
What do you think ?
( ) Ohhhh - nooooo, not another Distro!
( ) probably useful to make setup/usage of UML easier
( ) becoming useless, if skas/sysemu go into vanilla kernel
:)
regards
Roland
