Package: rootstrap
Version: 0.3.21-1

Hi,

rootstrap seems to assume the existence of /dev/ubd/1 in the host
filesystem:

$ rootstrap foo
[...]
SLiRP Ready ...
Using rootstrap module mkfs from:
        /usr/lib/rootstrap/modules/mkfs
Could not stat /dev/ubd/1 --- No such file or directory

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/rootstrap/builder", line 66, in ?
    dispatch(module, modulevars)
  File "/usr/lib/rootstrap/builder", line 44, in dispatch
    raise "rootstrap: Module '%s' failed, status: %d" % (module,status)
rootstrap: Module 'mkfs' failed, status: 1
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
[...]


I guess devfs in the UML kernel would work as well, but the 2.6.14.3 kernel
I'm using at the moment doesn't have that either.

I'd suggest to check whether /dev/ubd/1 exists in the mkfs and mount
modules and if not, to mknod the device file somewhere in tmpfs and use
that instead.

Thanks,
Martin
