I happen to be running hostfs with NFS underneath. I get core dumps from my application, and I want to gdb them outside of the UML. I had to switch from core dump to NFS (which seems to fail now) to putting them in /tmp (which is ramdisk), and then move them to /var/tmp, which is hostfs. Still, I now have to use unique file names, or things get confused between host and guest. I also like to do: "make DESTDIR=/uml/root/file install" from outside. This now only has effect if I umount/mount the file system. (I know have a /usr/local mount just for this, even though /usr/local is inside of /) It used to be that this was a problem only if the program was running. Is there some way to defeat the caching that is occuring? or even to just flush it? (other than umount) - -- ] ON HUMILITY: to err is human.
