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 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
