Sender: user-mode-linux-devel-admin@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: user-mode-linux-devel-admin@lists.sourceforge.net List-Unsubscribe: , List-Id: The user-mode Linux development list List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , List-Archive: Date: Mon, 27 Jun 2005 17:13:24 -0400 (EDT) To: ML-uml-devel Cc: William Stearns , Jeff Dike Good afternoon, all, I tried to boot an fc4 VM ( http://www.stearns.org/uml-root/ )on zaphod. I compiled 2.6.12-mm1-um26121_20050627 at Jeff's suggestion, and still get: Setting hostname placeholder.stearns.org: [ OK ] set_thread_area failed when setting up thread-local storage It doesn't appear that any of the patches in Jeff's current 2.6 quilt patch set refer to set_thread_area (Although I could believe that one of them addresses it indirectly so the string doesn't show up in the patches.) Even adding LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 to the end of the kernel command line (which, according to doc/kernel-parameters.txt passes that environment variable on to the environment inside the VM) doesn't help. LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 on the kernel command line also exhibits set_thread_area failed.... I've also tried disabling nptl from userspace with the following added lines: /etc/profile.d/glibc.sh export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 /etc/init.d/functions export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 /etc/initscript : (make mode 755) export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 eval exec "$4" Still hitting that set_thread_area error. Is there _any_ way to convince an fc4 userspace to not use NPTL?
