Which is the other root_fs? Slackware is way stablere than anything else, since I guess they are much more conservative when building glibc. > So I tried regressing glibc, and now (with glibc-2.6.3) chroot works, but > UML still gets stuck at the same place when I try to boot. You mean glibc-2.3.6? Can an older UML version boot fine on that root_fs? No definitive incompatibility with FC4 exists that I know of. However, there is a similar problem with _host_ glibc >= 2.4. Is this your case? > Sapan -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can add them to my list!
