As near as I can tell from reviewing the user-mode-linux documentation, this is a requirement of user-mode-linux and is where it puts all of its other kernel modules (at least for the way that UML was implemented in Debian). From its README.Debian: Kernel modules -------------- Modules are installed in /usr/lib/uml/modules/<version>. The easiest way to get to them from within UML is to use hostfs, e.g.: mount -t hostfs -o /usr/lib/uml/modules hostfs /lib/modules or: echo "hostfs /lib/modules hostfs /usr/lib/uml/modules 0 0" >> /etc/fstab or copy them into your root filesystem (rootstrap can do this automatically). Unfortunately, I haven't yet found other module source packages that support UML to see how other module packages handle it. A mini-policy for how to handle UML would be *really* helpful for this. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
