In your bin directory you will find a kernel and an ext2 root file system
when it's finished. Just run it like this:-
bin/openwrt-uml-2.6-vmlinux ubd0=bin/openwrt-uml-2.6-ext2.img
bin/openwrt-uml-2.6-vmlinux ubd0=bin/openwrt-uml-2.6-ext2.img con=null ssl=null ssl0=fd:0,fd:1 con0=null,fd:1
The uml will start, and bring up an xterm with the serial console in it. No
networking is configured, but, it's a starting point. The resulting file system
The uml will start, and eventually the serial console of the uml will be at your
console prompt. If you would like it in xterms, substitute con=xterm and con0=xterm.
No networking is configured, but, it's a starting point. The resulting file system
has just enough free space to start kicking the tires and playing in the world of
'embedded routers' along with all the resource restrictions that come with that
world.
To configure networking and more, refer to the user mode linux documentation online
To configure networking and more, refer to the user mode linux documentation online.
A quick start goes along this line. install the uml-utilities packages so you have
the uml switch in and running, then add a command param to your uml start like this
eth0=daemon,00:01:01:01:01:01,unix,/<your uml switch control socket here>
With that in, and uml networking actually functional (can be a challenge at times),
you should be able to ifconfig the interface and talk to the host side, or, if you
bridged the uml switch to your host network, you should be able to run udhcp and be
away with networking off to the world. Again, if you are unfamiliar with uml and
uml networking, please read the docs and how-to stuff available on the net. It does
take some fiddling to get it started and working right the first time, but after that,
it opens up a whole new world of virtual machines.
